Try writing a script. I feel like dying and I feel so horrible. I know that the ocd is trying to trick Me. I know with my intellect that I will get better. My emotion brain says, do it. My wise mind says don’t! Trust my wise mind. People love me and would miss me whether I believe that or not. Also, pretend you’re on a train platform. Your emotion mind says,” go on... get on that train.” Your wise mind says,” oh no way! Stay on that platform.. do NOT get on that train!” With your thoughts practice staying on the platform. Let your thought get on the train and leave.. watch the thought go on that train. Stay on the platform!!! Stay on that platform!!!!

One thing I've learned with ocd is that the best way of overcoming it, overcoming a certain topic and various topics is acknowledge the thought is there but do nothing about it. Let it sit, it eventually goes away. I've had so many topics that could've gone way worse if I fueled them with answers,ruminating... The key is to when the intrusive thought, urge, etc comes acknowledge it, let it go and remember:it's your ocd talking, because ocd likes to be sure you always do the best for you, but the way it does it, nhe not the best

Does anyone imagine they are doing their harm thoughts during an action, making you feel like you acted on your thoughts? For example, someone gave me a hug and at the last second I imagined I was touching something I shouldn’t during the hug? I want to make it clear it’s something I have zero desire to do! But the problem is, I thought it on purpose and it makes me sick !! Obviously nothing happened but my mind is telling me that was me trying to do it. Even though it was physically impossible to do. Am I a monster or could this be OCD? I’m freaking out and don’t want to be here anymore. I feel like I’m the exception and that this isn’t OCD. I know I post about this stuff a lot but I’m struggling and don’t know what to do.

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.

so I need to get back into ERP, but it’s so hard to manage these thoughts and learn to deal with them. like I swear my mind has to make everything about it. Like every time I clean my room, my mind’s like yup make sure it’s clean so when your parents find you, or something so stupid like if I get a headache, my mind convinces me that I like the pain and that that’s why I get my thoughts because I actually want to do it. It’s so exhausting. Because I know I would never want to take my life and I treasure my life so why does it do it to me? It’s hard to comprehend the fact of these thoughts too because I don’t know many people with this exact theme. It’s such a scary feeling. And I’m constantly questioning whether I have actual depression or if it’s just my OCD. Yes I have been diagnosed with suicidal OCD, but my mind still tries to convince me otherwise. I just don’t know how to let these just sit and pass without panicking.
