Harm ocd is probably my second most prevalent theme right now, aside from contamination. I have seen a few posts about harm ocd, you just have to look for them. I think you can filter what shows up on your feed, so you can see those relevant to your themes.
I have perfectionism as my first theme and next in line is harm OCD.
You can filter what shows up as that’s what I do. Also, JG, I have harm ocd mostly towards my wife but from time to time towards others. Ocd loves to target her though and when I was bad off I would get relief unfortunately when it didn’t target my wife. Mine started with a nightmare about stabbing her last May at the age of 36 late onset and has changed my life in a way in which I wish never happened.
Thank you all for your feedback and letting me know about filtering my feed! @Dre83 I’m very sorry to hear that you’re going through what you’re going through and have been ever since/for as long as you have been! I completely hear you when it comes to changing our lives; my childhood Harm OCD came back with a vengeance that has hospitalized me and debilitated/handicapped me ever since. Every day/all day is a fight!
Dang JG sorry to hear that. Yeah it does seem like it’s a fight every day for sure
I went out with my partner today to spend the day together and try and do some ERP. the whole time I linked my arm and had my phone in my other hand. I would purposely move out the way for children or notify her so she could see I didn’t do anything. Please tell me I’m not the only one with this type of harm OCD. I’m really panicking and it’s making me feel sick. I had that feeling where my stomach drops and I’m scared of my thoughts
Hi guys. Hope everyone is okay I just wanted to ask for some ppl to share how they overcame harm ocd completely so that I can get an idea of how to work towards healing. Thank you :)
Hello everybody I just am looking for someone to talk to about my harm ocd / false memory/ sexual intrusiveness. Anyone who has healed or found ways to deal with the illness. Feels like I’m losing hope more and more everyday. I want to be okay but it’s hard living with uncertainty and unwanted urges of doing something terrible. Thanks god bless.
