springsodas | Intrusive Thoughts Suck.avi

Result of anxiety/fear
Happens out of nowhere
Can range from mildly irritating to very disturbing
Never reflective of my beliefs and values
Sometimes involve actions I would never do (ex: making a mean comment on someone's post with the intent to start an argument)
Trying to push the thought away makes it persist and sometimes even worsens/intensifies it
Apparently, the main and most effective way of dealing with intrusive thoughts is to just let the thought happen without trying to fight it, which is easier said than done when you don't want to have it to begin with.

I don't know if it's a possible indicator of OCD or just a result of stress/depression (probably the latter), but uuuuuuugh.
