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

so this all started not too long ago, for literally no reason at all. but one day i got a random intrusive thought about harming others and it freaked me out bad. since then i’ve been non stop focusing on it and im genuinely scared that i am, or gonna end up like those sick people that have documentaries about them. i’ve never had these types of thoughts before and after me and my mom looked a lot of stuff up we think i have OCD cuz a lot of the stuff it was saying was accurate to me. to anyone in here, does this sound like OCD to you? i’ve always been a nice loving person and these thoughts freak me out so bad and make me feel like i’m a bad gross person. it got to the point i don’t even like looking at myself anymore. i just wanna go back to normal man. another thing to add, when i would explain this to my mom even though i was telling the full truth on how crappy this made me feel it felt like i was lying almost? but i know i wasn’t deep down. i’m just scared that what if i act on something or get in my head too much you know?

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

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.
