Harm OCD involves intrusive thoughts of inflicting violence onto someone else or oneself.
Having violent or aggressive thoughts every now and then is not uncommon. However, if you have harm OCD, you might be deeply disturbed to have these thoughts and need reassurance that you won‘t act on them.
You may perform a ritual or engage in compulsive behaviors to decrease the anxiety caused by these violent thoughts.
It’s important to note that having these thoughts doesn’t mean you’ll act on them.
Obsessions, or intrusive thoughts, for this type of OCD might include:
fear of having suicidal thoughts or behaviors
fear of committing violent acts
fear of harming a loved one or yourself
fear of unconsciously harming someone without being aware of it
fear of violent urges
Some examples of compulsions might include:
avoiding knives or other sharp objects
repeatedly checking yourself and others to see if you’ve harmed someone
ruminating over past events to ensure you haven’t harmed someone
avoiding situations or people that may trigger these obsessions or thoughts.
