Harm OCD and just a horrible thought/feeling


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Does anyone experience just a horrible feeling as well as harm related OCD. It's so hard to describe but it's as though my mind is in overdrive even though I feel relaxed physically. It's a horrible feeling, like an urge and subconscious thoughts around harm. I absolutely despise feeling like this. Any advice or support would be well received.

Thank you.

Hi yes my harm ocd comes and goes when it comes you feel like you will loose control and lash out at any1 at anytime. The feeling in your chest tummy makes you feel like you were close to acting it out. That feeling is your adrenaline ( fight or flight. ) never avoid when near any1 stand closer force more thoughts images urges out. I bet every time nothing happens apart from you feeling your going mad. But you don't. Hope this helps.

Yes, i know exactly what you mean. I was crippled with the constant 'urge' that i would lunge at anyone i walked past or saw. I couldn't sit on the sofa with my mum without feeling as though i was going to lunge at her and hurt her, same as anyone i walked past in the street. I was just convinced i'd lose control of myself in one way or another.

Leave the thoughts and feelings alone, ignore them, ride them out, don't let them surprise you, accept that they will bug you hundreds of times a day probably - they will soon lose their power and your anxiety will come down, everything will start to become easier in time. x
