Feels like I wanna act on the thoughts I’m stressed out
Completely understand. Literally experiencing the same thing right now and also just feel like a complete liar/fraud, here for you if you need me.
@Anonymous;):(:|:) I feel the same way:( how do u cope
@ocdsuxxx Usually I find a way to break the ocd spiral by going back to where the first intrusive thought began that got me into the spiral to begin with or noticing when I’m intentionally ruminating and pulling myself out of that, but it is a lot easier said than done, using a distraction is good it doesn’t stop the thoughts but it can interrupt the ocd spiral try colouring, drawing, writing, a tv show/movie anything that requires your attention in the moment and can slow down the rush in your mind.
i completely understand, i think it’s best to try and surround yourself with things that may help to distract those thoughts. here if you need to talk! you’re not alone 🩷
@allyc_ Thank u girl ! I just don’t know why it feels like I will and want to :( I feel like a psycho like why is ocd like this idk
@ocdsuxxx unfortunately OCD will try to take things away from you and try to manipulate you into thinking that is all your fault and you’re a crazy person, but you’re not. i promise you. so sorry you’re feeling this way! :( again, here if you need anything🩷
@allyc_ Thank u love ! How’s your ocd been? Also here for u too if u need someone 💜
@ocdsuxxx aw, thank you! my ocd has been okay. pushing through :)
i have harm ocd and i think im at the end where its the WORST. like the final battle. my thoughts are telling me i want to act on them but i am RESISTING! this cant have me!! we got this girl
@Anonymous Same it feels like I’m just holding back :( tired of this ! How do u cope 💜💜
@ocdsuxxx i just sit there and take it. and if its REALLY bad i’ll remove myself and go do something until it dies down. this WILL pass. im slowly trying to do the things i used to do. my biggest issue right now is mental compulsions and chatgpt. the thoughts are there 24/7 but im really just trying to ignore the noise. i also check my feelings a lot which i need to not do “do i love my mom? do i love my sister? do i feel happy right now?” its just a big journey with a lot of learning. im still scared, im still nervous something will happen, but eventually i wont be.
@Anonymous I question if I love my family and care if they were dead my brain says I don’t care it sucks :(
So my OCD got that bad to the point where I’m barely having ocd and my body is stuck in stress, I can’t sleep, my mind is soo loud and my chest hurts and my vains are popping out and I feel like my body is shutting down what do I do ☹️ I don’t even feel like I am here I can’t focus on anything I’m always zoned out
I was sleeping after a very long stressful week at work and life but lately i was worried about myself cause I don't feel bad anymore just numb, I thought I was living and it's fine but I woke up now with jumble of different bad intrusive thoughts that it makes me feel like I'm crazy person it always happen when I'm stressed I guess but I feel like my mind is going crazy and I try to stop my mind from thoughts it's thinking about different things in one minute like idk what's going on Idk how to manage
How do you guys handle uncertainty? I keep having so many what if thoughts and I feel so bad. The worst ones are what if I act on my intrusive thoughts or actually want them and I can’t tell if they’re me or not. It just feels so real and at this point I don’t even know if they’re intrusive thoughts anymore. I just want to not be a bad person and not feel like this anymore.
