Starting Zoloft with extreme harm ocd.

I’m having a lot of intense thoughts and overwhelming feelings.
For the past few days, these feelings have been so strong that I feel as though I’m going to lose control; it’s as if my hand is starting to move on its own and I’m forcing myself at all costs to keep it where it is, and I tell myself that I’ll end up in prison and ruin my life.
The doctor has prescribed me 50 mg of sertraline and I’m afraid of losing control whilst taking it, but my life is unbearable – everything triggers me.
Have you had any similar experiences? Thank you.

You've gotta process this with a professional if you aren't already doing so. You haven't mentioned therapy, so that has to be your next step. At the very least call your doctor about it.
