So do you feel like your thoughts were physically wanting you to do it ?
And has this died down now to the point where it isnāt affecting you as much or very little
So you had the urge to do what your thoughts are saying but as you knew that isnāt what you wanted you just slowly put that to the back of your head life the thoughts themselves?
Sorry for the questions did it cause you stress whilst holding back and not acting on these thoughts aswell
Thanks for the link to the video did you any gronial response at all ?
Thatās what I mean I have had non stop gronial response all the time itās worrying me
@Figuringitout1 And they are gone now ?
I hate these thoughts. They are coming again :( my cousin kind of went crazy once she got to my age and I don't want to be like that but I'm afraid I am going to and these thoughts won't stop
We have got this all together we are strong
@Figuringitout1 Itās horrible like today woke up with gronial response and the urge to do something when i tell myself no and donāt do anything my arms start to hurt is that normal?
Iām not seeing a therapist of yet Iām in the uk not sure if you are or not just scared to tell a therapist as I donāt want to be misunderstood and is it normal for your arms to feel tense with it even without the pain ?
Do you have whatās app Iām 19
I havenāt received an email are you from the uk ?
Oh right okay my number is 7508241121 but you might have to change your settings from uk to us to add me on there
I am so scared of everything .Of my thoughts.If I am a good person.Years ago I didnt help a kid who was in danger.Since then I started to have terrible thoughts :( i am so terrified.I still have these thoughts and I am scared it means something about me .I really dont want to hurt anyone and I want to help that kid now but idk how I can now.Also I am scared I betray everyone.I still have terrible thoughts and when I am with someone I care is worse...idk why.For example I started to talk with a collegue and he is really nice to me.I told him some things abt me( not the intrusive thoughts) and he was supportive.I have no idea if I will tell anyone abt my thoughts..and bcs of that I feel like I lie to them and betray them.I really want to enjoy my life and be happy and support people( especially because I didnt help that kid then).I want to live up to my morals now but I feel like I lie and manipulate people bcs I am a monster.Is this normal? To feel this way? What can I do? What if I am my worst fear and just cant accept it?!
I have no idea anymore. I guess this all started with me worrying about whether I was gay, then whether I was a P, then worried about being just attracted to teenagers. After that I started freaking out about not feeling āgrown upā enough. Like āIām an adult wtf is wrong with me for seeing someone who is probably younger and thinking theyāre physically attractive. Then I started overthinking not finding older adults (like 30 or 40) very attractive. Like ofc Iām probably not gonna find them attractive, theyāre not anywhere close my age. Maybe the desires are half real. Maybe as a 21 yr old young adult I do find older teenagers (16+) somewhat physically attractive. I still think itād be weird to date one. Maybe thatās the normal reaction Iām supposed to have. If not, please let me know. I just donāt wanna do anything illegal one day and Iām super scared I will. I canāt tell if the fear is my just being afraid of the law though, in which case I might actually just be a bad person. I hate that my brain is just rationalizing thoughts now. I feel like I canāt do the ERP thing of ājust accept that the thoughts are there but donāt engage.ā Like what? How can I just think a thought that might be so integral to my identity and just ignore it? If itās all true and I donāt like people my age anymore then I have to know and plan around that, that could change my entire life. Iām rambling, my b.
How do you guys handle uncertainty? I keep having so many what if thoughts and I feel so bad. The worst ones are what if I act on my intrusive thoughts or actually want them and I canāt tell if theyāre me or not. It just feels so real and at this point I donāt even know if theyāre intrusive thoughts anymore. I just want to not be a bad person and not feel like this anymore.
