You will never comitt suicide. You have ocd and thatâs different. Youâre just scared and ruminating about it. Thatâs all. I had suicidal thoughts for years and i am still around

I think that one thing you can do is trusting yourself. Ocd uncertainty about doing something to yourself will first be hard, but when you still express yourself despite the doutbts, I promise you will get so much more courageous. Because you have this unpleasant feeling about those thoughts, and overall ocd, it just means that those thoughts are nothing that you would want to do! I wish you all the very best, I'm with you.

The best way to get back at OCD for trying to prevent you from doing the things you enjoy is by doing them anyways. Youâre proving to it that âsee! Iâm doing it and the fear youâre trying to plant in my head is a lieâ. Remember they are the words of a bully, an annoying person yelling things at you. But that doesnât make it true in the slightest. Make those videos to your heartâs content and watch OCD back down

I feel this and completely understand. They are just thoughts though and we will learn to let them just float by and recognize them as just thoughts.

There are times my harm ocd has me convinced that my feelings of self harm or suicide and harm are real and that any moment I could commit the act on myself or my family. Is there anyone who can chime in on this. I feel like all the time I want to leave run away or avoid my family because of these thoughts. Like I shouldnât be around my children and I donât trust myself.

Recently ive been getting very scared to even be angry (i try to avoid even being angry if i can!) bc of the horrible thoughts I have and it feels even more real when I'm angry or even annoyed. I've been hyperfocusing on my bodily reactions (mainly my hands or how I'm feeling like did I just enjoy that? Was I considering? Did it just move? Why is it tingly? Why did it twitch?) And I've noticed the small twitches whenever I'm mad or annoyed and it's scaring me so bad! Like do I want to act out? Am I holding back? Is this an indication i was about to do something or will in the future? I used to not even twitch at all when mad and I felt 100% sure I'll never act out but now it feels like I don't even know anymore bc of these twitches. Im so afraid! What I do know is I don't want to ever act out (idea is distressing not appealing) but it's so scary like why did i twitch or was i about to act out? Im scared these are real urges and i research for many many hours to make sure they arent real urges or impulses and i also tend to ask ai or here if the anxiety gets so bad. Like how do I know of this is actually a serious concern and I should be very worried???
