Intrusive thoughts are unwanted and involuntary thoughts, typically about sexual or violent topics, or things that the individual is afraid of. They are commonly associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder, but are not exclusive to it.

This tag should not be used for normal sexual fantasies or bizarre impulsive thoughts - intrusive thoughts are genuinely distressing to the individual experiencing them.
