Can your ocd make you feel like you “desire” to do that bad thing I know I don’t want to stab anyone, but I can’t help but it feel that I have a “desire” to or that I’m “curious” about what it would be like to do it. Sometimes I’m anxious about this but other times I’m not ? Is this normal with ocd ? Usually when I’m near a knife I get intrusive thoughts, images and urges to stab the ones I love, and it’s frustrating because I know I don’t want to, but the ocd always makes it seem like I want to… if that makes any sense I’m trying to not be anxious and alarmed about this stuff bc it won’t help me ocd and anxiety at all, but I can’t help wondering about this stuff. It’s like ocd tries to make it seem like I want to stab someone, but I’m so anxious about it. There’s been times where it felt like I wanted to or had a desire to. Wtf is going on ?? This doesn’t seem normal But then I try to talk about it and my ocd says “you’re just manipulating them to make it seem like you’re a good person” “You’re a murderer in denial”
