intrusive thoughts are created because they’re what you fear the most. they’re not what you’re going to do. they’re what you hate most of all.
they’re not an indication of how evil you are. the only thing they indicate is what you’re most against.
#intusive thot: eat this shiny bead u found off the ground#me: no! I Am Against That
it’s fucking hilarious to think of thoughts like that in these terms but that’s not actually what i’m talking about! as far as i know (i need to do some research when i can find the energy cause i’m not totally sure) thoughts like that are called impulsive rather than intrusive. when i say intrusive thoughts i’m talking more about “squeeze that small animal until it dies” “stab your friend with those scissors” type of thoughts, which come from anxiety disorders because you’re anxious about acting on them. i’m not sure what impulsive thoughts come from.
stab your own eye with those scissors is another good example along with just put your hand in the boiling oil
