I can again neither place that kind of thought in neither sexual, violent or religious blasphemous.
This article talks a lot about OCD too, so when a person starts thinking that something horrible will happen unless he knocks 7 times on the table, jumps on one foot up and down the stairs 3 times etc. Is that not an example of intrusive thoughts? I can neither place that type of thought in the category of inappropriate sexual, religious blasphemous or violent thoughts! Maybe this thought even begins to be somewhat obsessive. What about if i all of a sudden start to think about dying and death? Kind of a distressing and upsetting thought and probably not something that i wish to think about, but maybe i'm unable to put the thought out of my head again. If someone asks me to think of a pink panther i will probably not be able to not think of a pink panther, is that not an intrusive thought? Or does intrusive thoughts have to be distressing and upsetting in nature? Is it also intrusive then? Nevertheless these 3 categories seems weird and useless to me, for example it is not possible to have religious blasphemous thoughts if you are not a religious person. If on the other hand someone shouts pink elephant and i get the image of a pink elephant in my head, and my mind starts swirling around the idea of pink elephants, then that would be an involuntary thought. In my opinion this is the exact opposite of an intrusive thought, because i am in control of the kind of thoughts that i'm thinking. If on the other hand, intrusive thoughts are any involuntary thoughts that enters the mind, then categorizing the thoughts the 3 categories seems weird! Now if i decide to do a math-problem i will sit down and think about the math-problem at hand. I guess it all comes down to what the definition of an intrusive thought really is, but if the definition is that it can only be blasphemous religious thoughts, violent thoughts or inappropriate sexual thoughts, then it is a rather weird definition. I'm not saying that these kinds of thoughts can not be intrusive i'm just saying that i can identify many other kinds of intrusive thoughts that can't be placed in either of these categories. Blasphemous religious thoughts, sexual thoughts and violent thoughts. It seems that this article argues that there are 3 different categories of intrusive thoughts.
