I’ve been having the exact same thoughts!! I thought if anyone hears what I’m thinking they’ll think I’m crazy! I’m glad I’m not alone as that thought can be so scary and hard to control. Accept the thoughts and allow them to come and go, there’s no shame in because so many people have the same thoughts and some could be even worse. I watched a crime documentary and this sparked me off to have harm OCD as I was thinking “what if I ever do that?” Or “what if I became a murderer” accept it as just a thought it’s not an action.

It is OCD. OCD attacks your loved ones and makes you feel like you actually want to harm them. Say yes I do want to harm them and totally agree with the thoughts I know this is extremely hard but if you do that it wk get better. And you do have the willpower to agree with these thoughts and get better :$

That's definitely harm ocd! It was the first kind of OCD I had as a real young kid and was scary. I always had thoughts of calling my dad a swear word or stabbing him or strangling him and I cried myself to sleep a lot. It came back ten times as bad a few months ago when I finally got a boyfriend after trying to find someone who liked me for so long. Now that I have a top priority, OCD loves to attack it, so I get thoughts of killing him or his family and I just hate myself for it. But, they are just thoughts and it's OCD trying to hurt you. Don't give into the thoughts. Confessing is my biggest compulsion and I always have to sit with the OCD and anxiety without telling people about the thoughts. It's so so hard, but it helps reduce the anxiety if the thought comes back again ☺️

I struggle so bad with intrusive thoughts. They can be so bad that I'll cry because I KNOW that's not how I feel or want to do. (Too embarrassed to say what they're about) I'll constantly try to figure out why I have them, and constantly figure out what they mean, causing me to constantly circle around and around. I had to get on anxeity meds, which helped a little but the thoughts still happen. How do you help yourself with this? How do you know that you're just not some physcopath? 😅

Hey so a couple months ago (7-8) I remember being upset at my family member. Like she was talking too much while I was annoyed and remember wanting her to be quiet. I got an intrusive thought like a really bad image of doing something really bad to her, and my hand twitched to the side a little? Like it felt like I was about to?! And I remembered thinking "if I do this, I'll get in trouble". I got up and left to the bathroom and felt horrified! I was thinking "did I want to act out? Did the only reason I didn't act out was because of getting in trouble? If there was no consequences, would have I done it?! Does this mean this whole time I've been using OCD as an excuse?" I remember I couldn't sleep for 3 nights because of how bad the anxiety was, I was crying and I felt very guilty like I should turn myself in to a mental hospital. I couldn't eat for many days or be near her because of that thought and twitch I had! I'm worried it was an impulse or I actually wanted to hurt her. And even to this day I still ruminanate about this. Like last night I couldn't sleep well I kept waking up every two hours and asking myself "am I capable?" I couldn't eat last night. Sometimes I move on from it like I forget that happened but when I remember, I feel distressed about it! I don't want to be an evil person or do bad actions towards anyone! I'm even scared to be angry because of this because I'm scared I have more "chance" of acting out due to anger. Like was it an impulse and I held back? Is this even OCD? Please help, I'm really scared!
