Anyone feel like this ever?
I think this is ocd-ish, but... probably part something else too. It's like I get a suddenly bad feeling. The hair on the back of my neck stands on end; instead of going with the "wires just got crossed and I likely reacted funny to something totally innocuous" direction of reasoning... I tend toward "Something bad is going to happen. Or is happening. Or JUST HAPPENED. But I can't do anything about it" So I end up in this place where I am feeling ^that up there^, but also trying to stand outside myself and just say "Could you calm down? Maybe a little bit? Play a game, read a book. This is not a Stephen King novel, you. do not. shine.." So i say stuff like that, so it's funny, so I ignore that I think someone is dying or equally as terrible. Part of my brain focuses on the potentially tragic and goes around in circles, the other part laughs, claps and sings 'Round and Round the Mulberry Bush'. No indication of when it will stop. I just suddenly realize it has. Now that I got that out of my system and feel awesomely moronic, I'll go paint my nails five times or something. Like bubblegum pink. Opposite action and all that. Um. Anyone have anything helpful to add? :/ |

My OCD is obsessing over bad things... Makes it really difficult to leave the house, doesn't it? Interesting though, as I get that jolt too. Wonder why? Some sort of neurological overload?

I used to. When I had intrusive thoughts. As soon as I got that feeling, Wham, I was inside my head imaging all sorts of horrors. Now I only get it if something terrible really has happened.
