i’ve done that too for some stupid reasons but yeah it can be ruminations. once i was at the hospital and i wasn’t being let in the ER fast enough bc my heart rate calmed down so i started ruminating on things bc i thought maybe that would get my heart pumping, then i realized that was stupid and stopped but a few days later i started ruminating on WHY i did that it was a big mess 😭

I had a horrible intrusive thought last night and I just happened to think about it on purpose trying to calm myself down I guess and I was just wondering if that was considered ruminating. I’m so sorry that happened to you. Ocd sucks

I don’t know what this is. Help please?
Two things are happening: I get thoughts that just keep looping. They almost feel like song stuck in my head. Also, I’ll imagine something and I feel my stomach drop. Then as the seconds go by I keep getting fragments of the this thought but with different details. For example, it’s kinda like how a “vision” is portrayed. I’ll get a glimpse of the thought and then it’ll rapidly expand into something worse every few seconds. I don’t know if I’m causing this or if it’s just an automatic thing like any other intrusive thought. It feels unavoidable, idk if this is a compulsion or if it’s just another manifestation of an intrusive thought. Apart from that remembering an intrusive thought triggers the full thought again and then it just keeps looping or expanding. I don’t know how to stop any of this. Help?

Does confessing an intrusive thought just make it come back stronger?

Is a false memory a type of intrusive thought?
