Why would anyone be a monster about a thought? Do you think people who write horror films are monsters? Or scary novels? Or murder mystery games? What makes you a monster and not them? Or, do we all have thoughts and that is just the way it is? I go with option two there.

It seems like every time I feel that I have an understanding of my intrusive thoughts and an understanding on how to deal with them I’m hit with a new and weirder intrusive thoughts that send me spiraling on what it means. I constantly search up the intrusive thoughts that I have to see if anyone online had a similar thought and that usually works and I calm down but there are a few time where the thought just feels too unusual and idk how to deal with it.
I feel like the thoughts are telling me, "You want this, you want to be attracted to kids" when I know that's not the case. I've been stuck ruminating for the past couple of days and I'm so worried about this disorder convincing me that I'm something I've never been. I try not to fight it, but when I don't it feels like I'm giving into it like it's true. The meds I'm on keep me from being super depressed, but it's still there. I feel like I'm going to act on my thoughts one day and it worries me. I don't feel like myself anymore and I don't know if this is progress or a relapse. Even when having intercourse with my partner, I had to thought block because the thoughts were images while in the middle of it. Then afterwards, they came flooding in saying that I was doing it as a distraction. I don't know what else to do. I try to pinpoint all of my triggers, but sometimes I don't think I even have any. I feel like a monster. I'm honestly scared.
i understand that i need to resist compulsions and i understand that intrusive thoughts are not true to who you are but i still feel like a monster and i don’t know what to do, My boyfriend is the best boyfriend ever and i know i want to be with him forever but lately i’ve been having intrusive thoughts about hurting his feelings or doing something terrible and even though i know i would never i just can’t seem to accept that these thoughts don’t make me a monster..
