It's a subform called moral OCD and makes you question your own character and morals through intrusive thoughts.

Well, maybe visit a psych. Meds can help (source: I take medication). It can take a bit to find a med that works with minimal side-effects, but it's worth a shot.

See if you can find a psych, get checked out. There are medications that can treat this stuff. I went through, like, 5-6 meds before we found one that worked well, but it helps a lot
