    I think you need to make up your mind whether intrusive thoughts are a thing or not, because you start your post with talking about how to handle intrusive thoughts, then you go on to say they aren’t a thing.

    It’s a perspective that doesn’t make sense is what it is.

      Intrusive thoughts are real, they are also a figment of our imaginations. Both of these things are true and not mutually exclusive.

      I think, therefore I am.

        You in the beginning:

        I’m sorry if this sounds callous but I utterly disregard your notion with predjudice.

        They aren’t intrusive thoughts, they’re just your thoughts, stop being afraid of thinking.

        You one post ago:

        I would argue that my way of thinking must be correct for this task because I am obviously not afflicted in the same way by my thoughts that I feel I need to define the bad subconscious ones as ‘intrusive’. They haven’t intruded on my consciousness, my consciousness found them.

        You this post:

        Intrusive thoughts are real

        Again- make up your mind.

          Your incapacity to grasp my understanding is not a lack of understanding on my part.

          That sentence you quoted is missing some of it, no wonder you didn’t get it’s meaning you only read half of one sentence out of a two sentence cohesive statement and a link to reference further learning.

            I wish I could be as smart as you. You’re probably richer and prettier than me as well.

              I doubt that, we can’t all be rich and pretty like you.

                Well, since I’m ugly, disabled and jobless, that must be very hard on you.

                  Well I’m all those things too, just not stupid.

                  It’s been fun devolving to belligerent banter but if you ever want to improve your cognition regarding the actual topic and my position on it I’ll be glad to respond to any questions you might posture in that exercise in self development.
