Intrusive Thoughts

Hi - it sounds like you’re dealing now with intrusive thoughts surrounding you being violent - perhaps with others, perhaps with yourself, terrifying regardless - and that they’re really bothering you. Generally speaking, sufferers of OCD or those with obsessive-thinking tendencies tend to overestimate the importance of those kinds of thoughts (which most everyone actually gets here and there) which is why they can make us feel so anxious.

Is it normal? I can’t say for sure, but does it sound like you’re having anxiety about what could be normal intrusive thoughts? Yes.

Feel free to PM if you’d like to chat any more about this :)

All the best,

I can imagine that you would be scared of your violent throughts. I have had some negative thoughts and am trying to work through them. This video was cute and helpful which was posted on 7cups. https://youtu.be/m2zRA5zCA6M

I hope this can help you a bit. Wishing you the best.

Hi. Sometimes, I have bad thoughts of being killed or what would happen if I killed myself. It's not healthy but I can't help it. School life and friends get overwhelming and I just want to run away to be alone but I know I can't survive alone. I just get too much cuz I always feel suffocated and end up hurting myself and starving myself but that really isn't good so...

I just want help and I don't know how to request it
