hello Ashley sorry to hear your suffering from this it's the worst thing ever. When I was really struggling I was read the book the happiness trap and it really helps you understand thoughts are just nothing but words and pictures.
Hi amy,
The thoughts and images scare me. It affects my life. Im doing better then i was but some days are just awful. I just want to feel better
What kind of thoughts is it your having ? I have a baby boy and mine are all about him, breaks my heart as he is the most important person in my life. you need to remind yourself ocd picks something that you feel strongest about 😣 as cruel as it is that's how it bothers us so much because the thoughts are totally against our nature. feel free to private message if you don't feel comfortable talking about it on here but please try not to be ashamed it's not you it's your illness
Hi amy,
My thoughts are of hurting people i love the most. It could be my son, fiance, parents, brother or a complete stranger. The thoughts are so awful. It scares me and causing me such pain. Why doesnt it just go away. I love my family. Why would i have thoughs of hurting them
awww I honestly really really feel for you, how long has it been going ? I hope your able to talk to someone close to you. mine all started as a dream when I was pregnant, my sons 7 months now and iam trying so hard to not avoid been alone with him I do a little at moment but it's making the ocd win as it knows it frightening me. my family just say think happy things or think of something different, if only it was that easy for us. keep holding it together.
Hi there, I too suffer from this. It is the most debilitating thing out there. It's constant for me too! The thoughts make me so anxious and it's all I can think about!!!
