Struggling with OCD

3 replies

I have had OCD since I was a child. No one ever got me help as a child though. I have brought it through to adulthood (I'm 27 now)
There are times it's not so bad but there are times the intrusive thoughts are really severe like the past few days!

I keep having thoughts that I will hurt my child and they are horrible urges and I hate it. I would never hurt my child but I am worried I will act on them and I am worried I have hurt them without knowing it whilst I'm asleep. Could i have hurt them and forgot?

doubt it, how old are they?
my ocd revolves around harming my family too.

Have you received any help, sammy? This is a really distressing condition and difficult to manage without any intervention. I know provision can vary from area to area, but a chat with your GP should point you in the direction of what is available to you.

Hope you get some answers.
