Intrusive thoughts are so bad I really think that if I think them they will become true I know I shouldn't but idk maybe if I do those compulsive actions and do the the thing like touch the wall Like you know the things like your family gonna die unless you touch the wall Idk but maybe if I had something like a wall to touch and take away the fear things would get better Because my intrusive thoughts are like kinda becoming real Which is scary as fuck
Hi Anon,
It’s going to be okay. These are just thoughts.
Unrelated actions like touching a wall does not affect the safety of your family, and they will be fine if you don’t do it.
It makes a kind of sense that if you’re having a lot of different intrusive thoughts all the time, Murphy’s Law goes into effect and occasionally the thought and the real world will seem to interact. But I promise you, that’s not true. Intrusive thoughts don’t have a deeper meaning.
Since it sounds like are you really struggling with the fear and anxiety of these thoughts, please consider what options you have for therapy or counseling. This is getting too big for any one person to try to deal with alone.
Good luck.
