What exactly is Pure O?
Commonly referred to as ‘Pure O’ by the OCD community, ‘Pure O’ is a form of OCD where people mistakenly believe that it differs from traditional OCD, in that it features no outward compulsive manifestations; instead, the anxiety-inducing obsessions take place only in the mind. Obsessions tend to be violent in nature awful images what play over in ones mind and trys to make us beliee we are theses awful scenarios.
I have horrible pure ocd, what helps you?
I have to try not to avoid the people or things that trigger my awful thoughts as avoiding gives me great relief it' keeps my ocd strong.
So when I get the thoughts or false urges I don't run out the house like I used to, I make myself a cup of tea, interact and play with my Little one and just acnowledge Iam having and ocd thought. I always stay with my discomfort and awful thoughts as this learns my everyday that they are not dangerous they cant make me do things. I do try to use knives but iam still no were near feeling better with a knife in my hand and having intrusive thoughts... but I know.i need to keep using them. Hope I've helped you in some way x

Your welcome... Iam here anytime if you need a chat x
Thank you. I do worry that i don't have ocd and that I am sick in the head.
Thank you Amy. I know this most of the time but there are times I doubt it because of how I am feeling. It's like something awful is taking over my mind. Is this part of ocd ?
Yeah a very big part in OCD.. . OCD is nicknamed the doubting disease we can doubt pretty much everything about ourselves x
