The last while I have Been having really dark violent intrusive thoughts. And today I started hearing a voice telling me to act on those thoughts. I called my therapist and she got me an appointment with my doctor on Wednesday. So I just have to tough it out tilll then. My question is how close are our thoughts from our actions? Does obsessing about something turn into an action or do they just stay as thought?

During mixed states I can get really bad intrusive homicidal and/or suicidal ideation/thoughts. Sometimes it will come in waves that can last for hours at a time, and can also be accompanied by severe physiological distress. I've never actually attacked anyone, though. I fight back against the intrusions, talk myself through things, isolate when I need to do so. For me it's anxiety-based at its core, and my fight/flight response is kicking into overdrive on top of an obsessive, racing mind.
I don't shy away from admitting to homicidal ideation episodes, because I think it's important for people to understand that just because it can be a symptom of some mental illnesses, doesn't mean that a person is actually homicidal or violent. If anything it always causes me a great deal of distress and I am the only one who suffers from it. |
