Anyone one else get intrusive thoughts or is it from anxiety and depression?

When I drink around an electric cord, I have the urge to spill the liquid on it. When I light my candle on fire, I have the urge to spray alcohol on it. When I get on an elevator, I have the urge to drop my phone into the little crack in between. When I'm waiting for the subway, I have the urge to jump down into the train tracks and wait for the train.

Minor, occasional intrusive thoughts are normal. What you’re experiencing isn’t normal or healthy. If that’s as severe as your thoughts get then it sounds like it’s just anxiety and you should see someone about that if it’s upsetting you. However, if you are getting truly severe intrusive thoughts, then you may need medication.
