Hey ya'll. I haven't been active in a long time, and I have no idea who's reading this and if anyone will. I hope someone will. Recently, I've been having harm ocd intrusive thoughts. It's becoming too much, and I don't know how to handle them. They're not my thoughts, I know I'd never hurt anyone or myself. I love people so much, and I know I'm a good person with a lot of empathy. I came on here because I felt like I needed a non-judgmental place to talk about my thoughts. These intrusive thoughts, they're really overwhelming and scary, and I don't know what to do :( . I'm going to try to seek professional help, and I'm really scared right now.
Love you guys,
Jewel.

@-hxppygirlhxdley- Thank you so much for the answer and tips! It's really hard to stop thinking about my intrusive thoughts, I always fear I'll hurt someone or myself, and it's hard, even knowing that I never will. I love people, and I love myself. I have empathy. But I WILL try my best to ground myself and try to remind myself that I am NOT my thoughts <3

@SweeterThxnSugar1 whenever i get any sort of intrusive thoughts, i always focus on phyiscal things where i'm at, like focusing on my breathing or focusing on what's directly in front of me. that distracts me long enough to remind me that those are intrusive thoughts and not real and not who i am. i don't know if this will help or not, but i'll definitely keep you in my prayers!
