Does anyone ever worry that they’re inherently a bad person just waiting to do something horrific?

One thing i think abt tho, is if this was true, then thered be so many news reports of people with OCD acting out. Its almost always people that dont have the empathy to worry about something like that, that are actually dangerous. I remind myself to be proud that i care enough to be worried n sometimes it relieves some stress. Idk if thats just another form of rumination tho.
Every minute of everyday
Story of my life 😂😂
yes, all the time
Yuppp
everyday
Yes... a lot
It makes me feel like I'm nuts
@Speckles Me too, the hyper vigiliance is rlly debilitating especially when trying to form new friendships
My entire life I’ve always thought, people say it’s okay to make mistakes, but I feel like I’ve made a lot. WHEN will I make the mistake that just so tips the scales. And people say, alright, that’s it, too many mistakes, you’re officially a bad person.
@Kaitlyn🌸 Foreal, sometimes i wish i could just tell people every mistake ive ever made and let them judge me right then and there. that way i wouldnt have to live in fear, but i realize that’s counterproductive. I have kinda done that w friends family and my partner. I just wish i could stop caring so much about how people might view me cus i grew up with a lot of people around me making mistakes and i rarely ever judged them as hard as i judge myself
I used to, a long time ago
hey, i totally get where you're coming from. feeling like you're inherently bad is such a heavy, difficult thing to carry around. remember, those thoughts aren't a reflection of who you truly are. 💔 have you heard about "unstuck"? it's this ai-powered therapy tool for ocd - unstuckmyocd.com. it's really helped me out this past month and could be a game-changer for you too. another member here recommended it to me, and i just wish i'd known about it sooner!
I actually have this app and it is genuinely such a game-changer for me when Im really struggling too, great rec
I’m worried I’m an actual horrible person and using these as excuses…. I know nobody will understand this and will get confused but I can’t keep pretending everything is okay anymore:( Basically, for a long time, I would think “oh this is wrong, I shouldn’t do it” then a few months later I would be doing that thing? Like this was forever ago but I think about it, how did I not know things were bad when I thought that way? I mean I knew in reality I never actually knew what was okay and what wasn’t okay, and I only went off of what people told me, or the kind of people I was around 11-16 .. I regret these actions and I always end up crying, how did I not know??… I know I didn’t know but … I don’t know…
I tell people my situation, they say it's nothing big or it's fine, I was a teenager. I still feel awful, magically thinking that the persons going to change their mind and expose me to the world that I'm an awful person even though they said I had no affect on them whatsoever. I feel guilty to admit I've shared it with numerous people, whether a little older or the same age, never younger because I feel uncomfortable talking to younger people. Still, everyone says I did nothing wrong and there's nothing to worry about, but I'm more concerned about the fact I feel like I truly did something horrible, I feel like what if someone's enabling my actions, even though they say they're being honest. I feel awful, and I know I have to sit with discomfort and all that bad stuff, but truly I feel disgusting. I've isolated myself for weeks, and I just don't want to hurt the other person, it's made me question my own intentions too. Does anyone else feel this way? I just feel like my mistakes are worse than anyone else on this app or in the world.
Been really worried about this lately. Having a huge identity crisis and worried that i’m just a shell and what if I just take the identities of people around me? I’m scared
