    I'm swamped with guilt for nearly hurting my mother twice from negligent stupidity

    When I was in my late teens/early 20's my mother was diagnosed with a possible allergy to wasps/bees. Some time later a wasp nest cropped up under a windowsill in the yard and I was surprised at how well it was hidden. Our dogs were nosing at it and were being ignored. So, I decided to show my...

    Driving OCD Wonder if I should just give up my license

    I keep making possibly dangerous mistakes, today I didn't yield to a pedestrian at a crossing. I had checked for people while approaching it, stopped at the stop sign right in front of it, but as I was about to move on a pedestrian appeared from between parked cars and I stopped, they stopped, I...

    Feeling really disgusted and gross after looking up child beauty pageants

    I don't even remember why I looked them up, but some of the images show little girls in bikinis or provocative clothes and it horrifies me. I kept on reading some articles on the subject, maybe out of a morbid curiosity. I flicked through the search results, I don't know why I kept looking, I...

    I'm really grossed out and feeling guilty right now

    I was reading a Chinese manua about a guy trying to turn his zombie girlfriend back into a human, but it had quite a bit of fanservice and looked like it was turning into a harem (I stopped before girl no. 3). I liked the idea of him helping her recover and the action, but there was just too...

    I'm a little bit scared of myself at the moment

    So I've been struggling a lot with my mental health over the last few weeks, and I am currently staying on the sixth floor of a hotel, with a window that opens partially without a fly screen. I opened this window tonight and wondered 'If this can open more, I can commit suicide this way.' I then...

    Please be careful when reading fanfiction

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to send a general PSA, since I used to read a lot of fanfiction when I was younger, sometimes without proper discernment. There are many fanfictions are dark stories with very unchristian values and violent revenge plots etc. These stories often reject forgiveness as...

    How to counter intrusive thoughts about hypothetical scenarios?

    Today I started getting intrusive thoughts saying "You'd enjoy the physical sensations in X scenario". I'm having trouble strongly denying this, as my resistance is based upon my emotions and moral opposition to my thoughts. I disagree with the thoughts, and wouldn't act on them. I'm trying to...

    Feel guilty for accepting intrusive thoughts

    I've had really nasty intrusive thoughts lately, and I read online that you should just try to agree with them and move on. So I purposely thought that I agree with them, and I now feel really guilty because they're horrible. I just read online that you can just accept their presence instead...

    Constant Intrusive Thoughts Are Driving Me Crazy

    I have only recently realised that I very likely have OCD. It runs in my family and I've had numerous intrusive thoughts in the form of images almost like gifs. It's like my brain takes something I care about and goes, 'What's the worst possible scenario I can visualise about this.' It's...

    Why I want to remain single!

    I personally am facing some mental health issues that make seeking a relationship nearly unthinkable right now. I've never been in a relationship before, not looking for one either, but I would be happy if I did find someone someday. I think companionship is important, and that finding someone...

    Feel like I'm always anxious, guilty or scared, especially as a new teacher

    Hi all, lately I've been obsessing over past mistakes and getting scared of hurting my students. I work at a Special Ed school, which is a rather high risk environment. I find myself obsessing over every mistake I make. Today, an incident that happened when I was working as an assistant of...
