I know what you mean. I feel like the erp process and all the unconditional self acceptance is just leading me to agree with the thoughts and trying to think that what I fear the most is okay to happen. But I’ve learned that this process is just to show ourselves that thoughts are just thoughts, that they don’t mean the thoughts will bring action in the future. I know, harder to process, get through and truly understand. I’m still struggling with it myself

Thank you:( yes exactly, it is so hard. But I believe we can do this, it is just our brain doing everything to get our attention, but we must not fall for it! Much love :)

The best thing you can do is to accept the thoughts as just thoughts and try to agree with them even if your heart tells you otherwise. It’s a long process with many ups and downs. Once you feel like your thoughts are ridiculous and the next minute they really get to you and you feel like they are you. Try to keep yourself busy and practice self love. It’s really scary and it feels real sometimes.

Intrusive thoughts during self intimacy
Today has been really hard I feel like I can’t even breathe I feel like a pedo for real :( whenever i think during my alone time i try and coexist with it? but when i decided to think and think i panic and panic more and more i start feel more guilty guys I can’t take this anymore bc when I kinda feel certain it fades aways i think logically i know i probably am ok :( but it’s so scary for me what if i did actually act on the thought and I didn’t realize? And now reflecting it ???

It’s so scary because it feels real
I have really bed harming intrusive thoughts and sometimes feels like it’s feeling! The thoughts happening every day and the hardest part is that I’m testing my self in head all the time if that’s what I am or want!!! Also, so many times feels like I’m been tricking myself and doctor or people and maybe I don’t have OCD, just that maybe it’s me really!!!! How can I know who I am really 🥹???!!??

OCD
I’ve tried living in the uncertainty today & kept myself busy but I can’t shake this feeling that I’m about to lose control & act on my thoughts. I keep feeling like I need to check in to see how I feel & keep my self safe & when I’m near my trigger it feels like I’m being pulled into doing it & feels like I want to but I’m not using compulsions. My thoughts feel like my own & feeling like I’ll be like this forever. Can someone relate or give advice 😩
