Has anybody else here suffered with horrible intrusive thoughts? Violent, sexual, or otherwise? I get them from time to time, and they drive me crazy because they're always extremely gross or inappropriate, and thats not who I am. I had an intrusive sexual thought about one of my best friends recently, and it was disgusting but I couldn't get it out of my head. I'm not attracted to this person in any way, and I'm not sure where it came from, but it made me feel really gross.
>pic related was pretty much my reaction
>>
Yes, I get them sometimes. The best thing you can do is remind yourself that they're not you. The reason they disgust you is because they're so foreign to you. Identify them as intrusive, and let them go. Dwelling on them has made me physically ill in the past. Don't think about them too much. They don't mean anything about you as a person.

OP here. I had one about one of my closest friends, who is the same gender as me, and I'm not even gay. This person is also kind of a gross slob, but they have a great personality. My point is that they're not physically attractive to me in any way. Its like my brain picked the least attractive person it could think of. The thought of doing anything with them is disgusting to me.

Dont worry about it too much. Taboo subjects are always against the grain of thought. Might be your body warning you about something. Taboo things are natural- and naturally weird. Think about this though-
>Whats disgusting to you isnt the same to someone else
>You've had an intrusive thought that you pursued before
>People would definitely think its gross.

I've had similar thoughts about family. Its fucking awful because they're disgusting thoughts, and sometimes I keep thinking about them and can't get then out of my head, even though I hate them. I start wondering if they're real.

Good to meet you, I thought I was the only one with this specifically problem. But, then again, I recognize that I get it from my mom (most likely)who has done the exact same thing, out loud, in front of my in my formative years.

I also know that I'm in for a bad day when it's my very first goddamn thought in the morning. And I've never had the slightest intention of hurting myself, either.

Yeah, I think it's natural if you've been exposed to nasty shit like some things on here. I have horrible violent dreams too where I cant control the outcome as well.

For me, it's an inappropriate thought about an inappropriate person like a family member, or somebody that I'm not even attracted to. My internal dialogue with myself is like this.
>Hey, why don't you fuck _____?
>No, that's disgusting.
>You thought of it, didn't you?

It's a trait of evolution. The thoughts have been programmed into your mind to remind you of what is right and wrong, and who you are. In past societies doing some of those things could get you killed. They're more normal than you think.

You need the right strain my fellow. Indica Or Sativa. Know your strands. Sativa I would suggest if you need to focus (Probably not amazing for anxiety).------> Indica- Mellow out. *In da couch*

Don't get stressed about it - imagination is a fickle thing that you can't have full control over - if it really bothers you my suggestion is to take a break from /b/ (oversaturation of something doesn't really help you to ignore/forget it)
Take it easy /b/ro!

Hey I was having severe panic / anxiety attacks, like, was totally unable to deal with any kind of problem that required me to make a decision. So, I got myself some benzos and lots of weed, now I'm a stoner I believe, and I smoke that kush errday, but I go easy on the benzos y'know, only one whenever I truly feel like shit. I don't mix tho, only if I want to super chill on a Sunday. If I'm having problems overthinking, I vape some of that fine herb, or maybe I take a few tokes from a wooden hobbit pipe, makes me feel awesome. If I'm with my pothead friends, we roll some joints. If I'm having a severe attack, I drop a benzo, and let it act for an hour or so, once I chill and I realize life is meaningless and so are my problems, I proceed to work on my assignments, or to make some music / play some vidya, go for a walk, anything. After I settle, I smoke the kush again and I drop like the biggest bass. Also try LSD, it will enlight the shit out of you, you will become TAO itself. Unless you're a normie, which leads me to the thought that maybe LSD is a normie test kit. Get your weed faggot, see ya round.

Depressive thoughts can be a cycle. Changing one word in your sentances can make the difference to break it. Mind you- You'd have to be hopped up on pills or dead to think life sunshine and rain bows all the time. Humans are inherently violent- death is our culture... look at Disney for fuck sakes... Sex is a natural primal urge holms.

Mine causes me to skip meals. I get so anxious that I throw up, so I avoid eating because I'm not sure if I'll be able to hold it down. As a result, I feel weak and dizzy all the time, and my anxiety worsens. I can only eat at night before bed.

I used to smoke all the time, and I enjoyed it, but then these crazy thoughts started happening and they worsen when I'm high, so I've stopped. I hate myself for trying it in the first place.

If you're looking at something to blame it on, dont blame it on things you can take to make it better. Pills are the same way. I had anxiety. Still kinda do, but the pills never sat in my stomach. Ever.. Wasnt the pills. just the body reacting. I could blame the pills for making me throw up- it was just rejection. I tried it. Found it didnt work for me. Different than blaming the pills. A lot of what I learned is its literally breathing man. Breathing techniques. Meditation. Walks. BREATH NIGGA BREATH

If you get a thought like "I wish ____ would fuck me in my ass" and you KNOW you're straight, and the thought is disgusting to you, just write it off as a gross random thought. The same as "I wish I could eat shit right now" or some other disgusting thing. You don't really want it. Your brain is sending you a disgusting thought to see how you'll respond. If you're disgusted by it, you're probably in the clear. Your brain does this often, as a sort of test, to make sure its still functioning properly. Write it off as gross and random and don't dwell on it.

It's pretty scary because you don't know if its real or not. I had it happen with homosexual thoughts once when I was like 26 after drinking a lot. I was scared that I was turning gay or something, but I told myself that's ridiculous. I had to remind myself that if I was gay, I would have known way before I was 26, and it wouldn't feel disgusting or uncomfortable. It would feel natural, just like being straight. They were intrusive as fuck, and they were disgusting to me, but I eventually got over it.

It will if you let it. You've got to cut that shit out.

That advice was pretty solid. Let the thought happen, but then tell yourself "wow, that was fucked up."
Accept that it happens, remember that it's bad, and then just move on to the next thought. Fighting the thought in the first place is part of this compulsive cycle.

Get out.

All the time. I think it could be caused by autism maybe?

Like yeah, I'll be driving down the road and either want to drive into people and run them over, or pull out my dick and fap while I drive along. Or if I see a hot girl on the street I fantasise about how it would be to rape her and slit her throat afterwards.

I've raped most of the people I know in my head.

I also fantasise about killing co-workers a lot.

I get this all the time. Just try to accept it as a crazy thought and move on. The more you try to fight it, ironically, the worst it'll get.

you guys are talking about obsessive thoughts. Happens to the best of us. Whenever you start to think of something terrible that you could do, you have to stop youself and remind yourself that you are in control and that you aren't going to do that. There is a lot of therapy and self help availible for it that you can Google.

Mine gets so bad sometimes that I throw up, or I eat, but I can't taste my food.
