False memory ocd. Help.

( presented a thought I mean imagined a thought) I have False Memory OCD. Recently, OCD thoughts related to the topic "suddenly I attacked a person." I think about the past situation of OCD, as if I imagine a thought (and could I have such a thought, if I had such a thought), after which the thought immediately comes to my mind that suddenly I attacked now, suddenly I did not imagine the thought, but suddenly I had a real thought, suddenly I attacked, and the old thought seemed to be overshadowed by a new thought. I lay on the couch with my eyes closed, thinking about the old OCD situation, imagining a thought, i.e. I imagined if I had such a thought, the thought immediately occurred to me that I suddenly attacked now, but I was lying on the sofa with my eyes closed and I remember how I presented the thought, I do not clearly remember what exactly happened next, but I remember that I was lying on the couch, then sat down and photographed that I was sitting on the couch, because I realized that I didn’t remember going into the corridor, I don’t remember taking the keys. The thought that I do not remember some of the time after I presented the thought, the thought that suddenly at that time I had a real thought, suddenly I attacked, but I understand that most likely I presented the thought and lay on sofa. The thoughts that suddenly I attacked, suddenly I left the apartment, creep into my head, but I understand that I most likely presented a thought. Such thoughts are always accompanied by a scenario that suddenly I took the person to the room that is in my house, but the keys to this room are with the neighbors, who rarely go there and the door is most likely always closed, but thoughts that suddenly they were in that room and forgot to close the door, and then closed, but did not look there. But I understand that the previous OCD thoughts that came after the presentation of the thought also said that suddenly the neighbors forgot to close the door, although I understand that the neighbors cannot forget to close the doors, and even more so they cannot forget to close the doors at the very moment when the thought comes to my mind that I suddenly attacked. I realized that it looks like a vicious circle. I think about the old OCD thought, imagine a thought, a new OCD thought comes, that suddenly I attacked now, the old thought is overshadowed by a new one, I think about the OCD thought, imagine a thought, a new OCD thought comes, that suddenly I am, the old thought is overshadowed by a new one ... I would like to hear your opinion on this situation with env. Is this a manifestation of false memory OCD? Ocd is trying to impose on me feelings that I am a bad person, that suddenly I have done something, thoughts in the form of false motives come into my head, thoughts that I suddenly attacked. I would like to hear your opinion on this situation with env. Thanks in advance for your reply.

You have to understand that there is a huge difference between an automatic thought that comes to you such as 'i attacked a person' or 'i killed someone' or whatever the intrusive thought is, and you ruminating on this. An automatic thought is like a quick pop uo that i mentioned above, everything that comes after is what you are doing to analyze and ruminate. So you going over this and asking yourself what if this is true? What if you really did it? What if this is true? All that case scenario you wrote above is the ruminating you are doing
Please watch Ali's videos and work on reducing rumination and time tracking.
We all have intrusive thoughts, ppl without ocd get same weird thoughts, but the difference is, normal ppl just say oh well weird thought move on, and ppl with ocd keep ruminating and analyzing.
Pls work on reducing rumination.
