Has anyone had intrusive thoughts pop into their heads about killing people you know/ are in your life? I feel like a crazy person, these thoughts are so messed up. I keep trying to do thought stopping but its not working 😢 i feel this need to confess these thoughts to the people they are about. Has anyone had these thoughts? What if its not ocd

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 ☺️

Am I normal? I have thoughts about killing my friends, family, and strangers recently very often in a variety of ways and these intrusive thoughts are draining happiness from me.. I don't know this type of OCD but I'm certain it's a subset of OCD. I don't know what's happening to me. Someone please reach out to me. Its draining happiness from me every day. When I'm having a fun time with family one intrusive thought enters my mind out of the blue. It gets so bad and so violent that it physically made me sick. I'm not even kidding.

Does anyone else’s intrusive thoughts just repeat over and over and over again? I have harm ocd and sometimes the thoughts will just be like “K!ll him” over and over and over again. It freaks me out so bad. 😭 maybe I’m just actually horrible and this isn’t ocd. This makes me feel like it’s probably not ocd because this probably doesn’t happen to anybody else.

Command intrusive thoughts

Does anyone else get intrusive thoughts that are commands? Like “you need to kill someone” or things like that. I feel crazy even typing that but sometimes mine are like that and I hate them
