I have OCD traits, along with my Autism, and have had intrusive thoughts. It culminated today, whenever I was angry at losing my Card Reader for my online banking. (I ordered a new one online) Then, I had to deal with more bureaucratic hurdles to jump - to request death certificates for a brother and a sister of my granddad.
Anyone else deal with inrtusive thoughts?
Yeah... It sucks sometimes. It's worse at night when I'm trying to sleep and my brain just won't shut up - usually silly things, conversations and situations many years ago I could have done differently, current worries, song lyrics... The list goes on.
It's the feelings that bother me the most. I've been told I have processing difficulties when it comes to emotions. So I don't know if I'm feeling bad because of something that happened in the last few days or because I'm actually just feeling low. I can smile and cry and have no idea why. It's getting harder to handle. I can only describe it as jumbled and the jumble lingers longer as I get older. When you can't relate an event to an emotion, how are you supposed to deal with it. The stabbing pains in my chest, tingling pain in my face and increase tremor in my hands, I know are anxiety, but how do you deal with it when you can't identify the cause. That in itself probably makes it worse. Sorry, just needed a quiet place to let that out.
I deal with intrusive thoughts on the daily. I learn to observe these like cars passing by on the opposite side of the road.
I just realized that’s the first time I’ve shared that with anybody.
Or maybe a truce. Seems more realistic to me. Speaking of myself…..
I am, thank you. Over the years some of it has lessened. And I’ve always made sure I didn’t make my friend a negative due to the intrusive thoughts. So along with the pain, I acknowledge the pleasure of simply having her in my thoughts. It makes me feel closer to her. But there are days that are so painful, she might as well have died yesterday. That’s a lot of days tbh.
My intrusive thoughts don’t manifest in any self harm or aggression thank goodness. I sincerely hope you can make some type of peace with your thoughts.
Yes, every day. Distracting yourself is the only way to fight the intrusive thoughts. Let them in and you're in for a wild storm.
Hang in there. Keep fighting.
Yeah, I find that distraction is the best tool to combat that, digging deeper only causes relapse..
And I thought my typos were bad...
So sorry you've had to deal with this. I hope you're feeling less invasion from those thoughts now.
I get intrusive thoughts. If I'm really sad/angry/stressed it turns in to self harm. Nothing dangerous, just a coping mechanism, unhealthy though so I'm trying to stop that. I think a lot of my intrusive thoughts are reactions to anxiety.
Big time intrusive thoughts since the death of a friend. Before yes. But on a totally different level since her passing.

Intrusive thoughts are a real pain and can be so debilitating as well. Often caused by stress and anxiety and they can really knock you for six! Whenever I get them I try to calm myself by listening to calming music or drawing. Anything like that helps me.
Well, starting them to deal with the thoughts won't help.
Fear-based thought that you might do something inappropriate or embarrassing.Fear-based thought that you've got a disease with no basis to support it.

Yes. Really struggling at the moment. I was going to ask the question myself but it was already here. Glad we're not alone in this. I can go for a while and have it under control, but like the last few weeks it's been bad. I've even been going to work earlier so I can get home earlier and not have to sit with my noisy head. I can't concentrate talking to someone and get mind blank. It seems to help a bit more when in my own environment.

Me, a lot of the time. They vary, but they're invariably quite distressing. If it goes on for too much longer, I may have to go back on the tablets.
What's the bag?
