i know anxiety and ocd are the same with intrusive thoughts, i have thoughts of harming my loved ones, have had them for 4 months now, and its the fear of the thoughts have caused the anxiety, but then i am trying to accept them as just thoughts, then the other day a thought popped in, but i had no anxiety and a feeling that it wouldnt bother me if i did act on my thoughts , i felt so emotionless, and thats caused more anxiety.
does anyone else get that feeling of emotionless and that they could act on there thoughts. i know there is a big jump from thinking to acting but scared the crap out of me that i felt so emotionless.

ps the reason i asked for help here and not in ocd is because i had anxiety, it started after panic attacks, and i read up about it and read you can have intrusive thoughts, and because i was anxious that thought stuck and i was so scared of haveing thoughts about hurting anyone i started to get them, but i have all the symptoms of gad especially when i go to work i am anxious with no thoughts so was wondering wether people get emotionless and i dont mean over just thoughts i mean in general thanx

we all get these weird thoughts....it's part of being nervous, anxious. The fact that you are worried about having them shows they are just that....nerves...accept that. It's not YOU.

hi, i have gone through ocd intrusive thoughts 4 years ago, and it too was a horrendous time, the more you accept the thoughts the easier it gets and a medication called amisulpride helped me greatly, now i have very few thoughts and just laugh them off, sure things will improve for you, take care, damo
