My best advice on this is expose yourself to the feelings of being around them and over time the anxiety and fear will subside.

@Anonymous I’ve had some many thoughts go through my head on murdering that I lost count. This is one of the worst themes in my opinion

@Dre83 Same, I don’t mean to take other OCD subtypes for granted, but Harm OCD has to be one of the worst themes. The fact that your mind is tricking you with such horrible thoughts that could ruin ones life, it makes it so scary

@Anonymous Yeah I’m not either but the taboo topics are hard. And yeah literally ruin someone’s life for real

I have struggled with this same theme for the last 3 months — it started when I came home from college after being quarantined away from family for over a year and I was terrified to potentially give them COVID. Your awareness and fear is evidential that you are not a serial killer and that your brain is actually firing off warning signals for these thoughts. But, they are JUST that — thoughts. They are meaningless. And you are always in control.

Thank you so much, I understand how hard it must have been. It sucks because I’m doubting if I feel fear or not, and omg it’s so frustrating. But thank you for your words, I appreciate it

It’s like my brain is doing everything in its power to convince myself and also justify an attraction to teenagers. I hate myself. I don’t want to be this person, but what if I don’t have a choice. How do I get these thoughts out of my head permanently. I feel like my life will never be the same if they don’t leave forever. I can’t tell what is a real desire and what OCD is trying to convince me is a real desire. I can’t do this every day for the rest of my life. I don’t want to hurt anyone, or I don’t think I do but how do I even tell anymore. This might not even be OCD at this point, I can’t separate my thoughts from OCD thoughts I think because I’ve had OCD for so long so it all just feels like me. Maybe it is me. TMI but I haven’t pleasured myself in like a week because my libido is so low now, I don’t want to do it with these thoughts.

I dont know whats going on. I dont know if its OCD anymore. I know it was in the beginning. Ive been through a lot of trauma and had one little scary thought of killing my sister 4 months ago that has blossomed into this giant idea of me being a serial killer and wanting to hurt everyone (I never had any social issues growing up but I have had some trauma). Recently I’ve been having urges to just give in. And my mental images have been horrible and I can’t stop checking if I like them or not. I think I’ve convinced myself I have. This morning I woke up a shaking mess with an urge to unalive my family and when my mom left for work I was alone with my sister and couldnt stop vomiting uncontrollably. I dont know if i’m upset because I cant hurt anyone and I want to, or if I’m scared and just want my old life back. I was an avid horror and gore lover and now I’m convinced I want to do the things I’ve seen in the movies. Someone please help. I’m ready to check into the psych ward.

I have religious OCD and the thoughts have been becoming really bad. I’ve been hitting myself punching myself screaming quietly if that makes sense pulling my hair out talking to myself nonstop. I can’t even hang out with my family without doing these things or going to another room to do these things, these thoughts of overtaking my life I will always be Christian God is most important to me and I’m so scared because these thoughts are terrible. They’re disgusting they never ending. There’s always something going on in my mind. I don’t understand. I’m scared. I’m turning into a bad person. I don’t wanna dishonor the Lord God, I don’t know if this is just OCD or something else.
