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

I don’t even say I have OCD anymore because it feels like I’m lying. Maybe this isn’t about OCD anymore and is about accountability instead. Accountability for how twisted and sick I am. Sometimes I force myself to admit that it’s not OCD and that I’m just dark and twisted and need to protect the world from me. I mean god this feels too real to be OCD. Sometimes I look back at my memory and wonder if I did certain stuff on purpose and ask myself who could do stuff like this? Everyone says it’s OCD but it feels too real. I have a gut feeling that I’m a deviant psycho. I want to be gone.

i haven’t been diagnosed with ocd but I have anxiety about harming other people/family members and it’s like urges and im scared I actually want to do it? I don’t think I’ve ever been violent as a kid (im 21 now) and the intrusive thoughts don’t go away so im just stuck all day everyday for the past few weeks just thinking and being scared about it and im having all these weird emotions like being irritated and angry I don’t want to hurt people I don’t think idk why my mind is making me think I do I’ve had intrusive thoughts before that I could brush away sure it took like a day or two but this one is different it doesn’t go away and leaves me with the worst fear imaginable and nothing I look up that should be giving me relief is giving me relief + I feel like im not in control of my body and that im just gonna lose it and act on these thoughts it’s just all on a loop and im not sure how im supposed to live the rest of my life when im in constant fear of my self
