Although there is an abundance of literature available about OCD and Intrusive Thoughts, I can't seem to find any that are specifically about a person having these thoughts but they are not of harming others, or self.
Instead, the thoughts are of someone else hurting me and mine. Just the opposite of most of the stories I've read where everyone fears hurting someone else. Anyone know anything about this?  THANKS! Last edited by bluekoi; Feb 05, 2015 at 08:57 PM. Reason: Add trigger icon. |

Welcome TerryLicia. First of all welcome to PC
 There are many kinds of intrusive thoughts, not only about harming or being hurted. If you often have these thoughts and they cause you a lot of stress, it could really be OCD. Have you a therapist that could help you through this?

Welcome to PC. Not certain about literature, yet, my impression it'd be in the anxiety realm, if researching? Definitive answers would come from a therapist or pdoc.

i have both, me hurting someone or someone hurting me. i was assaulted by an ex boyfriend and i think that has alot to do with it. sometimes i think to harm someone else but it is just a thought and im working with my t to get rid of these thoughts. my doc told me many people have this problem, but i never heard of it until i started posting here, which gave me relief to think i'm not the only one with this problem.

In fact when I was a child/teenager I used to have intrusive thoughts that someone might harm me. For me I think it came from the emotional abuse I suffered at the hands of my mother.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
