question
Not reassurance seeking but is it possible to feel so overwhelmed by your thoughts that you feel like you are going insane š«

I feel the same way, having harm thoughts around the ones that I love and are the closest to me. Feels like you are going insane. This is OCD and you need to fight the compulsions, mine are mostly rumination and over analyzing. Donāt do any compulsions, physical or mental.

Feeling this right now, itās almost like you feel like you need to do something but you donāt know what youāre supposed to be doing, like something is wrong, but you donāt know what, so you donāt know how to fix it

@Anonymous Exactly - I have felt like I need to āthink something all the way throughā and if I donāt, wellā¦ something bad will happen. Hate it - but true itās obsessions and the best think we can do in the moment is refocus

@Anonymous OCD feels as real as it can get. I struggle with harm OCD and have this same fear of losing control. Disregard all thoughts, feelings, sensations over and over again and slowly itāll get better

Intrusive thoughts
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? š
