currently
presently
for right now
there is such a strong urge
one of wanting to rip myself to shreds
it is powerful
tempting
incredibly annoying
because I don't want these thoughts
trying not to act on the urges
choosing not to
wishing they would shut up though and leave me alone

Don't fight the thoughts, fight the action. Let the thoughts pass; accept them, acknowledge them, and move on. Distraction and relaxation techniques, might help keep you focused on what's right.

thanks your messages mean a lot ...

zwang, that's really helpful ... for this, and for other things
past T's have stressed fighting the thoughts ... current T is more about not needing to do anything with them

i still get caught up at times in trying to fight the thoughts which doesn't work so well
