theres something I've never told anyone before And it's eating me up inside. Sometimes in my head I imagine these scenarios where like someone close to me or someone I love dies or becomes ill or I become ill and die and I don't know really how to say it but it's like in my head I enjoy creating these stories I enjoy imagining my family die and it makes me feel sick because I'm thinking things like this and I can't help it I can't stop my thoughts no matter how much I want to it's out of my control. I can't find the right way to describe it but if anyone has experienced something similar please help me because it's really scaring me
Which family members do you envision dying or becoming ill? Is this an OCD thing where you can't control the thoughts or are you fantasizing about people that you might be angry at? Or are you terrified of losing them? What part of this do you enjoy OR did you really mean enjoy in the sense that these are pleasurable thoughts. Just some questions for clarification.
