I'm constantly having thoughts and visions about bad things. How do you deal with yours? I can't seem to control them and they are really unnerving. Lately I keep having thought and visions of my parent s being shot or killed.

  1. Sounds like it's time to see a therapist.  Have you ever been diagnosed with OCD?  Do you tap, count, or repeat certain words to get rid of these thoughts?


  2. I am sorry you feel so bad. When I have something I don't want to think about, I will keep my mind very busy with other things until I just get tired. I think you can re-train your mind. Also, simple as it sounds, this seems to work: when you start having an intrusive thought, just tell yourself "Stop It!".  Even speak it out loud if you have to. Strangely, it seems to work.

    Also...do some research. I know there are some good books out there that could help you.

    I am glad you are getting counseling.  Keep that up! I wish you the best.
