I am so incredibly sorry for what you’re going through and I know from experience how painful it is. One thing that has helped me in my journey is giving OCD a silly little name and responding to the thoughts sarcastically even when they still stress me out. For example I would say “thanks Bob you’re ever so helpful 🙃” and then I would try my best to move on with the day/moment by engaging in a positive distraction like watching a show or coloring.
I've never dealt with that specific theme but I totally understand the difficulty of ocd. You're not alone. Keep doing ERP!
I take a deep breathe and pray. And I just remember that OCD can make you feel like you have urges and get intrusive and ego dystonic thoughts that don’t align in your values stuck in your head. The more we interact with the thoughts the stickier they get, kind of like a spider web! If we take a moment and sit with the thoughts they will eventually subside. Let me know if any of this helps you!
It may feel uncomfortable but you will be so much better for it when you take a moment and allow yourself to come back into the present and then suddenly OCD loses it’s grip.
What I would do, I’d take a stress toy if you have one and squeeze all your stress into it as long as you want and take deep breaths while doing it to relax your mind.
I am very sad. I have obsessive thoughts from night to morning or in a week. I am scared. I am 23 years old now. I have been suffering from obsessive thoughts for eight years. I am not from a rich family. Please someone help me. I can't do anything because the thoughts don't make me progress. I have no friends at university. No one talks to me.Help me, help me, please.
Someone please help me I’m having intrusive thoughts of hurting my pets and I’m really scared of myself and I want these thoughts to go away. Can someone please help me I’m scared and I don’t know if I’m a monster
i’m having a full on panic attack, i never used to be like this, what tf is happening to me, why am i like this, i’m so convinced i’m a horrible person and i deserve to be shut out forever because of my thoughts, i’m tired of struggling with harm ocd, i’m scared that because i have mental health issues i’m gonna end up ki!!ing someone someday or end up on the news, when i was at work earlier i kept thinking “how easy would it be to ki!! someone and get away with it” someone help, i don’t feel normal, am i crazy?… 😭😭i know that with ocd you’re not supposed to have reassurance and you have to be “okay” with the situation but.. how am i supposed to be okay with feeling like i could hurt someone…
