Opposite thoughts

[Mini]

Hi,

I have been really upset by opposite thoughts that happen. 
If I hear something bad e.g someone is poorly, my brain then thinks ‘that’s good “ when I want to think the opposite that it is really awful for them . I find my brain working this way very upsetting and not how I want to be.

is it OCD tricks again?

anyone else experienced this?

thank you

Yes, I have this, it's just normal intrusive thoughts.

Oh golly, so glad it’s not just me. Though really struggling to deal with it all as I feel I’m not the person I want to be. Any tips? Do you just ignore it?

Yes, I just ignore it. I don't like it, and I would prefer it not to happen, but I accept that my brain does weird things sometimes (like everyone's does) and don't dwell on it.
