This is OCD talking. What if is always OCD. People don't just wake up one day and decide they want to convert to another religion. For most people, it's a journey that lasts months or years. The sense of urgency that says you need to resolve this NOW is your OCD. I would suggest that you do some research on Islam. If after learning more, you still want to convert, then at least you will know what you are getting into.

Hey :) a Muslim here. Personally, being Muslim saved my life. It gives me consolation when no one can. Of course, it won’t solve all your problems (I’m on this app for a reason) but if you want to learn more, maybe limit yourself to learning Islam for a specific time, so that you can set a boundary and not obsess over it. If you have discord/other social media, I’d love to help you on this journey- no pressure though. I wish you luck in whatever you choose :)

I had a similar intrusive thought. I try to except the uncertainty by saying maybe I am in the wrong religion, maybe I’m not. Either way I can handle it. You could say something like maybe I’ll become a Muslim, maybe I won’t. If you do research on your intrusive thought you are seeking reassurance and won’t find the answer. No matter the thought if you investigate it you are giving meaning to that thought! Try not to give in to the compulsion

How do I get rid of these thoughts or calm down
I've been really overwhelmed with thoughts of detransitioning even though I don't want to like thinking I'm not a boy. It's been making my anxiety go up like crazy but I've never had this problem this much before, and I've always felt so proud of who I was and stuff but I don't know why this is coming up all of a sudden and I'm scared. I don't want to detransition but these thoughts won't go away. I often have feminine interests and have been trying to get into a better mindset and I feel like those things are making me feel more feminine and I don't want to feel that way.

I'm scared
Why is my mind saying I should say my thoughts out loud and that it will be ok, I don't want to because it goes against my beliefs and it freaks me out because my mind is like you've done this and this an other bad things this can't hurt you, saying it will give you peace and it just randomly started yesterday and idk what to do. It's like I have no will power to want to stop it's like my mind wants me to say it and idk what to do.
