    I hate getting intrusive thoughts. I noticed I would sometimes voiced them to others as "What if (terrible thing) happened?"

    I was told I think like a bad person and I ended up internalizing it for a long time.

    Thinking about the potential for bad things to happen doesn't make you bad, and the reframing in the Tumblr post is comforting. I was voicing fears I had in the hopes of being reassured they wouldn't happen.
