Guys I made a mistake and I feel guilty.. I have an argument with my bf and I was very disappointed with me, and I thought to go with someone else to make him feel like how he made me feel... And we are ok now but I have the need to confess him my thought.. I would never cheate on him.. It was just a thought that I don't want it now.. I feel guilty

My OCD started with a thought similar to this. My boyfriend and I were having problems and I had the thought of cheating and I started freaking out. I kept it a secret for a while, which was a mistake. I let it fester too much. Just know that you clearly wouldn't do something like that since it caused so much anxiety. It is just a thought and nothing more. My advice is to tell someone-

-that is close to you. You can tell your boyfriend if you feel safe, or a family member or friend. It is just important that you do not keep it to yourself and start to dwell on "why did I just have that thought?", because if you dwell it will only make things worse for you.

I am new to his forum, I was wondering if anyone here has experienced peri- natal ocd, my baby is 18 months old and the ocd started when he was 8 weeks. Horrible horrendous thoughts about harming him - my worst nightmare - I’m pregnant again and they have returned. If finding it really difficult to not take them personally, if someone could help me - or someone that has experienced it before.

Hi Ali, I'm am so terrified and exhausted everyday with POCD. I know I acted on my thoughts and I'm scared I'm in denial and that its true. I've been ruminating for months now and I don't want to do anything because I feel like im just going to go to prison. I'm so terrified that I will lose all my love ones because of what I think I've done. I'm so confused all the time.

I connect other experiences with this one experience I had and try to connect feelings of that experience to another and I also try to reenact scenarios.

Ali, my OCD is super afraid of me talking to someone about it. "It will ruin your recovery, it is reasurrence, you will get triggered and worse from that", it tells me. So I feel that talking to someone is then an exposure. But OCD then tells me "Why you did that?! That was a stepback on the recovery journey."Can OCD theme switch into recovery in this fashion?

Can ocd attack when i'am waking up and don't think clearly and when i at that time i can't refuse thoughts and when i wake up i understand that i have another ocd thought about false memory. Ocd says: what if you went out and attacked a person, i do not remember clearly that time, because i was sleepy and do not remember that time, but ocd convinces me that what if i attacked at that time?

Dear Ali, I'm Ana, I'm 18 years old and I'm from Brazil. I have been suffering from harm OCD for over a year now, but it was recently that I was diagnosed. I'm so scared. Sometimes I get the feeling that everything is real, that I'm a bad person. And I don't want to be a bad person, but it always feels like I don't care about it. I have always been a worried person, who cares about others, who lo

who loves people. I'm desperate. I don't know if it is a compulsion, but often I can't stop repeating words like "I would never do this", "I love my family", "I don't want to hurt anybody". I'm exhausted because of this and everything that comes along. I would love to hear from you.

Hey, completely understand how you guys feel. Just remember that overthinking these thoughts will only make them more common. We need to allow these thoughts to be in our brain and learn not to pay attention to them. Not thinking of these thoughts

No matter what just like Ali said, the thoughts, the urges, the images, the everything is all OCD and you have to sit with it no matter what and do nothing!

Harm OCD has brought me to breaking point. I play fight with my large german shepherd and we wrestle, I slap her b*m and throw her around, she wrestles me back and play bites me. I have such a stronge urge to squeeze her and I do(shes never yelped or showed distress) yet I cant stop these urges from feeling like I'm gonna lose control and squeeze and punch her to death. I feel horrible.

I'm signing up to Ali's 1 on 1 sessions when I get paid. But in the mean time any advice I would appreciate. I really feel like sometimes I'm gonna do it. I hate it and I hate myself for it

The more you talk about your OCD thoughts the more you feed OCD. Actually thoughts telling you that it is exposure is OCD thought. Anything that encourages you to think about OCD, talk about it is just your mind trying to convince you to pay attention to the OCD. It is uncomfortable not to ruminate, not to talk. But it is needed. Hope that makes sense. What I started my recovery I felt the same.
