How normal would it be for someone with ocd to have what i'd like to call an "intrusive dream"?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This Happens: Intrusive thoughts -obsessions- incl. Ones that feel embarrassing/shameful, r common among those w ocd. They can absolutely surface in dreams. Can b hard 2understand that someone having such thoughts doesn't want 2B having them. Obsessions typically feel very distressing. It's impt 2B able 2discuss obsessions openly. This exposes them 4what they r- just thoughts! www.Ocfoundation.Org.
