I’m so sorry you are going through this. OCD manifests in so many different ways, and there are endless compulsions that the cycle can latch onto to relieve distress. Harming yourself is jusy another compulsion that can be treated through ERP and resisting the compulsion. You are not alone, I hope you feel better. You got this!

I have previously experienced harm OCD, sometimes I still experience it today though not as much as I did. I know it is scary, though you are always able to control your actions and I’m sure you are a good person who wouldn’t harm anyone deliberately, so remember to trust yourself and remember these are just unpleasant thoughts ruminating that don’t bear any real meaning. Try your best to avoid giving into rituals, and instead try to distract yourself by engaging in something you enjoy, or if that is too tough, just allow the thoughts to be there and eventually they’ll pass by. Just remember you aren’t alone and there’s always people to help

Yeah me too. I always have a constant fear of changing my opinion if that makes sense. So far I haven't known anyone with that type of ocd so it makes me feel alone and that my type of ocd is rare and is harder to cure. I even tried looking it up online to see if there's such thing and I couldn't find anything relevant. The closest thing I got was "fear of change" but I don't even think it was ocd related. If anyone ever experienced that type of ocd before please reply to make me feel better.

Please reply Im terrified need you guys.
HARM OCD VENT. I feel Terrified. I am so scared that I am going to act on a terrible harm ocd intrusive thought on someone else. The idea, the sensations the urges terrify me because it feels so scarily real. I feel like im a horrible person - a danger and i’m so guilty for having intrusive thoughts. I hate knives, I avoid looking at them in real life, in the kitchen as i’m so terrified that i will do sone thing terrible. I get excited when my boyfriend cones round as i always think he knows about my thoughts so at least he would restrain me if i were to do anything bad. I just feel so scared so guilty. I have this horrible sensation of urge running through my body- currently im on the verge of tears- i feel lost. My ocd has even latched onto pumpkin carving - scared i will do something bad. Now my OCD is just being like “ maybe your avoiding is all fake and your trying to cover your a bad person” “ what if u actually want to “. “ I want to “ “ You arnt actually trying to hard from harmful objects “ its TERRIFYING. please may someone reply - I’m terrified right now its like an intrusive FEELING is in my body. Sorry guys. I NEED reassurance at this point, I don’t know what to do.

Questions
There are times my harm ocd has me convinced that my feelings of self harm or suicide and harm are real and that any moment I could commit the act on myself or my family. Is there anyone who can chime in on this. I feel like all the time I want to leave run away or avoid my family because of these thoughts. Like I shouldn’t be around my children and I don’t trust myself.
