Scared of Liking thoughts

Yes all the time but what I’ve learned is that if you feel distress at just the thought of liking your scary thoughts, that means it’s not real and you don’t like them because their making you sad/uncomfortable or worse feelings :(
You’re checking to make sure that you have the right feelings towards your thoughts. The two can be divorced of one another. For example. Imagine if a surgeon cried every time he operated on a patient. We need to recognize that feelings do not always have to match the thought/action.
Yes!
Yes
Is this ocd? I Have a thought or think something f harmful that I’ve gotten intrusive thoughts about - and get a feeling like I want/like it or it would give me relief??? Please tell me that will eventually go away and I’ll get my real feelings back??? Or have I just turned into those things? Sometimes things that make me upset it even feels like I’ll do them just so I can be upset about them.

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? 😅
