I- so i’m not just fucking insane and evil? I feel like a lot of peoples getting offended by this doesnt realize that none of those are actions we want to do. My ADD absolutely fills my head with extremely upsetting intrusive toughts almost 24/7. The very fact that they disgust me and upset me is what makes it an intrusive tought. Its not something you want to act upon, its your brain assaulting you non stop with everything that you hate and despise. This idea that intrusive thoughts are someone’s “true id” talking is particularly harmful to us experiencing these thoughts themselves. If y'all haven’t yet heard it before you heard it here now, these thought are everything we hate and despise, and nothing else. The way it was explained to me, intrusive thoughts are thoughts about actions or feelings that you would be so viscerally upseting to do or feel that your brain is constantly checking to make sure that you still find them repulsive and are not in danger of actually doing or feeling the thing. Its the mental equivalent of being in the same room as a spider and constantly checking to make sure the spider isnt coming for you, except you are the spider.This was explained to me in the context of the intrusive thoughts i get from my ocd though, so it might be different for intrusive thoughts caused by other conditions. -- source link
