any hope over control over nasty intrusive thoughts?

[simonsinghParticipant]

hey guys do you ever think that your ocd means there are thoughts, evil really evil intrusive thoughts so deep inside your mind  so yuu may never totally have any control over? intrusive thoughts are probably the most powerful force in my life, I cannot stop thse any more than stop breathing. There in my dreams too and sometimes evil things happen then, yeah I’m asleep and so scared if anything really horrible happened, I would not wake up, What if I sleepwalked based on these thoughts? Can intrusive thoughts get into dreams and do that?

Sometime so scared would be easy to do someting bad when asleep, even evil, cos your unconscientious when you sleep right? Ocd makes me worry…why can’t I be like the rest of the world? Yeah there’s a lot of evil in the world, but I really don’t want evil to happen cause of my Ocd. Can anyone write on this forums if you are like me? Like I know I would NVER purposely harm anyone, just cannot stop the thoughts. Thank god have no children to pass this horrible condition on to.  I wouldn’t expect to ever feel happy, but just not so scared of the evil thoughts all the time
