Well I went to the therapist yesterday. Made me feel a lot better for a little bit. But then last night it was a spiral back into the same old things. The OCD is so intense that it has me afraid to do anything. I'm afraid to drive because I'm afraid I have hit somebody while driving or ran over something. Not only am I afraid I start believing that I have hit somebody. So all at once feelings of guilt rush in. And of course the thoughts I have hit someone and now I need to be in jail..not only about driving but also about other things to. The worst part is when I start believing that I have actually done this act. Anybody else feel this way

You will convince yourself that youve done it because OCD clings onto any doubt you have, and makes you feel like it is fact. Just becuase you have a fear or a doubt, doesn't mean it happened. OCD is such a big bully. For you having any doubt that you haven't hit someone - winds up being treated in your mind like it's proof that you did hit someone. The problem isn't that you may have hit someone.. the problem is OCD. The way i think about ocd is that it is like a crowd of people trying to grab ahold of you as you walk by -- the only way to get away from them and from them  holding you and controlling you, is to keep on moving.. If you keep on moving it'll never be able to really get a hold on you! I hope you feel better sooN!

Its a horrible thing when you start to believe the thoughts you are having we all get it but keep trying to tell yourself it's ok it the OCD that is playing with you if you had hit someone or run over anything while you are driving you would definately know. I am so sorry you are struggling i know how it is we are all here for you.

Fear is a feeling that is more stronger than love.

It's normal when you feel it is real. Because that's how it acts. The OCD makes us doubt over things. They appear to be real and it scares us. I hope we'll recover someday.
