Kinda new to the whole OCD thing, well at least of this severity. I started having intrusive thoughts a few weeks ago, and i don’t know what to do. I’m terrified that I’m turning into a sociopath and might hurt people

It’s good to know there’s solid support out there, and I’m not alone in this.

Absolutly man you got this, dont be affraid to post and hopefully i will be able to guve advice for you, ive been going through ocd for a couple years it used be religious ocd

I’m so happy to have found this app and to know there are other people who are experiencing similar issues and take the time to help others.

Bren i know exactly how you feel this is my exact fear and theme. But i know this wont help but you are not going to hurt anyone or turn into anything evil. There will be moments that you will think your losing it but you are not its ocd trying to scare and convince you and you always pull through. It sucks man i know it does, everyday i ask why me, i long for my old life back and worry that im not myself anymore, but thats ocd. It will get better, with help. Keep strong man.

Thank you, i just keep thinking if I’m thinking it must be true. I keep trying to tell myself I’d never do that, and it’s not me, but then my brains like “you do want to do this, otherwise you wouldn’t think about it” and I’m scared because I’ve just started to feel numb to it because it’s so exhausting. I’ve always been a huge people person my whole life, and now I’m scared to be around people because I feel like a monster

I get where you coming from 100 percent i used to be very out going and funny and just fun loving person but rn im very quite stray away from people and when its horrific visuals i hide from people to try and calm down. Sometimes i do feel numb but yet still fight on the inside. Some days i just want to lay down and give up but i know better. Its weird that a good portion of people are fighting the same fight as me. Your not alone man and we'll make it through

Absolutely man i couldnt agree more this app does make me feel more down to earth because others can relate
