I remember when I was young and had intrusive thoughts in the middle of the night and I would just contemplate those thoughts trying to figure out why, but I couldn't seem to control it. It was really irritating and painful to deal with. But I have soon gotten over it by trying to ignore whatever the thoughts were.

Hey man. I'm 29 and also from UK. I have OCD, major depressive disorder, anxiety, social anxiety and suicidal ideation. I have to count while washing my hands, checking doors/windows, etc. OCD itself is just a type of anxiety disorder. I've come to the realisation that there is no permanent fix for mental health problems, there are only ways to learn how to cope and mitigate them. As a philosopher from India named Jiddu said: "It's no measurement of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society".

I had some tics a few years ago. I come over It by accepting the dissatisfied feelings. It does suck, but eventually all fine.

I get intrusive thoughts as well. Try meditating to practice silencing your thoughts. And when the thoughts cloud your mind try cultivating positive thoughts. When your thoughts become negative think positive. Remember negative thoughts are not you.

12:01 lorazepam & SSRIs can help deal with intrusive thoughts in my case. Definitely not going to eliminate them completely but they give you some strength to control your mind & thoughts.

Intrusive thoughts are a diffelcult one but have some experience of that in the past. For me looking at the act It self by watching gore, made them less of a threat. And looking at consequenties prevents me doing such things. Also keeping yourself clam and ignoring them can work. Most of the times trying to understand them solved the problem, a lot of people doesn't have bad intensens, but some do. 😢😂
