Hey all! I was wondering what are / were some intrusive thoughts you had?

For me and the reason why I ask, is because I just opened my tool storage to grab a broom. I saw my collection of sand paper and the electric grinder there and thought ‘Hmmm I wonder if you could sandpaper the legs to be suuuuuper smooth and hairless?’.

I did not give in - sanity was restored in time, buuuut that made me wonder what weird and intrusive thoughts you all might have had.

Guess I buy some wax for the legs then :-/ stupid hair keeps growing back…

    I surprised myself having some intrusive thoughts in a moment I was feeling quite down. (not gonna detail because I don’t want to trigger somebody)

    I’ve shocked myself because I wasn’t thinking I could have these. But these are rare and I know better.

      I hope they stay rare, better yet don’t return at all. Hopefully you have the support you need if they were to come back, also note, that you can always reach out to me and probably to others here as well if you are feeling down!

        Thanks, but no worries, I don’t think it will happen much and, if it happens it hasn’t stayed.

        It was more about sh. Never did, but it was a shock to me that I could have this kind of thoughts.
