Tell your ocd brain youd rather eat then give in to its evil ways. You can’t give in to its evil mind tricks. Accept the thought . You might be a pedo if you eat you might not. “You might be the worst evil, vile person” Accept it and move forward. See what happens. See what happens if you eat. Get curious. Don’t judge it. Just try it. Don’t give in to OCD. It wants to make you suffer ans torture you. Once you start recovering you’ll be surprised why you ever listened in the first place

Not to reassure, but there is no causal connection between eating and being a serial killer. Hopfully tomorrow will be better.

Eat anyway. What ever it tells you do the opposite. If it tells you you’re a serial killer, go hug your family and tell them you love them. Then guess what, OCD will tell you that you’re faking it. That’s ok, keep doing it day in and out and it will get better. Look at this journey as a time to change and change for the better. Go grab some food for the homeless. Be nice, encourage, and love like never before. Healing is on the way, I promise!!

I dont know whats going on. I dont know if its OCD anymore. I know it was in the beginning. Ive been through a lot of trauma and had one little scary thought of killing my sister 4 months ago that has blossomed into this giant idea of me being a serial killer and wanting to hurt everyone (I never had any social issues growing up but I have had some trauma). Recently I’ve been having urges to just give in. And my mental images have been horrible and I can’t stop checking if I like them or not. I think I’ve convinced myself I have. This morning I woke up a shaking mess with an urge to unalive my family and when my mom left for work I was alone with my sister and couldnt stop vomiting uncontrollably. I dont know if i’m upset because I cant hurt anyone and I want to, or if I’m scared and just want my old life back. I was an avid horror and gore lover and now I’m convinced I want to do the things I’ve seen in the movies. Someone please help. I’m ready to check into the psych ward.

I am so tired of having intrusive thoughts everytime i try to eat anything cause my mind immediately goes to “what if this tastes like human meat” “what if the texture is like human meat” and i have to stop eating and i start crying it annoys me so bad and i lost some weight because of it i just want to be normal again and to stop these thoughts they happened out of nowhere and i talked to some people about it and they tell me what cannibals have said and it has made things so much worse tbh im just so exhausted and i wanna eat healthy again

For context: ive been diagnosed with arfid. But my brain refuses to accept it and that i don’t have an issue with eating. So this past weekend has been anything but chill. Today felt like the tip of the iceberg. My mom called me out for having an irrational fear of food textures, food appearances, and smells i find distasteful and told me i just let myself get too carried away by the “what if” “could be” “might be” “looks like/smells like/tastes like..” thoughts. I just have to get over it essentially and stop giving it too much meaning. Its ridiculous. I was taken aback cos we weren’t even talking about food to begin with and it just sort of came up with her. Still in disbelief and so frustrated. Seriously thinking about just isolating myself and not talk to anyone about anything cos i don’t know what to do anymore.
