Steps for coping with Intrusive Thoughts
Label these thoughts as “intrusive obsessive thoughts.”
Remind yourself that these thoughts are automatic and you can safely ignore them.
Accept and allow the thoughts into your mind. Do not try to push them away.
Breathe diaphragmatically until your anxiety starts to go down.
Continue whatever you were doing prior to the intrusive thought.
Try Not To:
Engage the thoughts in any way.
Push the thoughts out of your mind.
Try to figure out what your thoughts “mean.”
Convince yourself that you would never do what the thoughts are saying.
Change your behavior so that you avoid the possibility of acting on your thoughts.
Try to:
Label your anxiety level and watch it go up and down.
Allow the thoughts to remain without hindrance. (They will go away on their own).
Focus on managing your anxiety in the present. Diaphragmatic breathing is especially helpful.

hey, you guys, so this is super embarrassing, but yesterday one of you submitted via askbox the text you wanted on a meme (the memegenerator wasn't working for you at the time), and because I tend not think before doing things, I answered it privately without saving your url or the text you wanted on the meme.
so, I'm making this post specifically to say that if you're reading this and it was you who sent the ask, please take pity on my poor soul and resend it, because i'd love to make it but i can't without actually knowing what goes on it.
thanks, and I hope all of you have a nice day! -ashley

this actually happened a while ago, but to be honest it was bad enough that sometimes just thinking about the memory triggers bad thoughts. -ashley

idontfuckingknowdammit reblogged your post Hey, guys! I had a run in wit... and added:
That was actually me! I didn’t think it would go through or whatever, since it was acting wonky, but yeah. Mine. x3
:D Well then I'll go ahead and post it! Yeah, it appeared on the page three times and it didn't occur to me that perhaps that was because posting was delayed and the creator of the meme pressed the caption button a few times (granted, that may not be what happened, but that's what I assumed) until after I spammed the caption button, like, forty times. So I guess I'll go back tomorrow and see if the meme I was trying to publish is there over and over again, oops. -ashley
Hey, guys! I had a run in with some very ableist, triggering opinions earlier, so I got on memegenerator to take my frustrations out via memes and noticed two things:
memegenerator is not working (sad face).
there's a really brilliant meme on the iti page on memegenerator that hasn't been submitted to the blog (double sad face).
Anyway, the point of this post is that I'm a little torn because I want to post this meme but I'd like to give credit to the creator. So if you see this and you're the one who made this meme (and don't lie, guys. You're better than that) and you'd like to be given credit, please submit it to the blog! Otherwise I think I might give it a few days and if no one's claimed it I'll go ahead and act on my moral ambiguity and go ahead and post it, and after that if you're the creator and you see it and still want credit, just message me and I'll add your url to the post.
I hope you guys are doing well, and expect a meme or two once memegenerator (hopefully) starts working again! -ashley

[Picture of an indri lemur with a purple and turquoise background. Top text reads: THOUGHTS OF STABBING EYES - Bottom text reads: BUT CAN'T STOP PLAYING WITH SCISSORS]
Sorry if this is really triggering but this is a true story for me. Most of my intrusive thoughts involve my eyes, usually when I'm stressed I think of stabbing or poking my eyes (but it can happen when I'm not stressed too). One time I was watching tv and just absentmindedly fiddling with some scissors and then thought of stabbing my eyes with them, and even though the thoughts creeped me out I couldn't stop fiddling with the scissors.

okay, i feel a bit like an idiot, you guys. i figured out why i wasn't getting messages for this blog.
i hadn't made my new blog an admin! so really, it's sort of all my fault. but the problem is fixed, so it's all good! :D -ashley

okay, hello followers (wow, there's a lot of you, i'm a bit surprised to be honest), while i was making that meme i noticed there were some memes that were brilliant but i never got a submission for? i'm not sure if that's because whoever made them just didn't submit or tumblr just messed with my inbox (also, i changed blogs recently, so that could be part of it), but if you've made and/or a meme in the time that i've been gone and it hasn't been published yet, it's because it never showed up in my inbox! so if you'd like to resubmit it that would be great! :)
again, it's been a ridiculous amount of time, but i'm hoping to get this blog at least semi active again, so sorry about the absence and if you have any suggestions and/or memes to submit, it'd be absolutely brilliant if you did!
i hope all of your lives have been treating you well! :) -ashley
