    I'm 17 and I have had Noticeable Harm-OCD thoughts [ranging from Harming and sexual thoughts] since I was 7 I finally told someone about them when I was 13 and got them under control when I was 15, a little after I turned 17 last year I learned that Harm-OCD was a fairly normal thing among people with OCD and I cried, Tears of Relief that I wasn't a bad person and I wasn't Alone in my fight that many other people and I were struggling with something we didn't understand yet, and I am glad you all have that same Relief that you aren't bad people too now.

    I think Ive always had some form of OCD since I was little. Though these intrusive thoughts are new. Some days I can pass these thoughts by other times not. I’ll get there eventually.. thankyou for your thoughts

    Hiya
    i recently finished my OCD support group, i think the main things i learnt was about trying to tolerate the anxiety through not checking or seeking reassurance, mindfulness (leaves on a stream), trying to notice or observe thoughts, a little anti-OCD, generally trying to tolerate the anxiety through not seeking reassurance, and to try distance myself from my thoughts
    i aware on self reflection that i think im very emotionally sensitive, i think i can be triggered easily; though emotional detachment in its positive and compassionate sense helps me cope, though being sensitive can make coping with OCD thoughts harder at times, possibly i think i may care to much i not sure, OCD seems to attack what i care about
    i think at times i have are violent thoughts and they feel so real, i think i react emotionally and over-emotionally at times to them because they feel so real and upsetting, and thoughts can make it difficult to tell what is and what isnt real, i also get thoughts (little like tourettes) where i feel i want to blurt out obscenities, or feel i want to write down obscenities, though i try resist, it can feel very tiring at times
    i think i still really struggle with being able to accept reassurance at times, esp when i feel anxious
    i think what reinforces OCD, or makes it worse, is something bad could happen and i could not tolerate it if it did in my mind i think
    i was wondering (hope this doesn't sound a silly Q), how would i try disengage with the violent thoughts and thoughts i want to blurt out/write down obscenities?
    would emotional detachment in a compassionate sense and mindfulness help possible, or roll my eyes at myself, when i noticing i having a upsetting thought
    could i try saying something like to myself "im noticing im having a thought that eg i blurted out the word "f**k" if possible or "im noticing i had a thought that i knocked over a computer screen", to try to distance myself from the thoughts even if they feel real?
    when my mind wont accept reassurance, could i try in the very nicest way "purposely not worry", walk away or not seek reassurance even from myself (even if it feel very hard to do)?
    kind regards
    thanx
    richy :)

    I hope what I experience is harm OCD cause I was scared of the possibility of losing all control and becoming a serial killer. My mind is so fucked up. It gets real bad when I'm really pissed off and would have no filter and such brutal stuff of how I would want to get rid of someone but for some reason would even say the stuff to certain close people. I don't know if it's OCD cause I thought it was just thoughts and not losing control when angry and saying extremely intrusive stuff.

      Just the fact that we are searching this up and we are trying to get rid of these thoughts, shows i think the fact that our thoughts are not who we are.. We just want to get rid of these thoughts cuz its the least thing that we would actually do.. 2 months ago i experienced harm OCD about myself.. i had this thought that i would jump off the balcony..For 2 months i cried so often and my mood was so low cuz i was afraid that i might act on this thought. Now after 2 months tho im healed from this thought and i can easily stay in the balcony while 2 months ago i was afraid to even look at it.. Now im experiencing harm OCD about my fav people..I know that it will go away eventually..It might take some time but as soon as you believe that this thought is not you and not something that u would do, you'll eventually stop being afraid of this thought. ❤

      @@oliviachew8761 Honestly I just keep reminding myself that my thoughts are just thoughts..Just because your brain tells you smth doesnt mean thats its true or that you'll actually do what your brain tells you to do. Also dont give much attention to your thought. Dont try to push it away just let it be there and say do yourself "Meh I dont care what you say" Remember the thought is meaningless. Its hard sometimes and i even panic a lot or even cry but it will be okay.. Day by day the thought will be less and less meaningless and it wont affect us anymore ❤️

    my form is that by thinking of a bad thing that i will somehow cause it or trigger an evil person to cause them harm and that’s how i cause the harm by doing the thinking the thought itself is the harm 😢

    I have intrusive thougts about others harming or wanting to harm me. Or that objects shall harm me, or that i harm myself on my surroundings. It is as if i self harm with only mind. I am fearful of all. Is this this the same category as intrusive thoughts according to psychology?
    It's to constant to be intrusive. And i do not relly mind or fear them. But they hurt in my body and i would like to replace them with trust.

    • @kkyoto
      @kkyoto 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      yes, this is still harm ocd. harm ocd can be about harming others, harming yourself, being scared of sharp objects because it might ‘trigger something’, having paranoia about others harming you, etc. you’re not alone and if you need someone to talk to i’m here!

    • @kkyoto
      @kkyoto 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      just the fact that you are disturbed by all of these thoughts shows it is not true. just because it’s your thought doesn’t mean it’s reality. combat it with saying that you’re stronger than the thoughts.
