No, my mom called the nurse about it and she said that Prozac wasn't good for teens and young adults. I think I have more control over the thoughts now too, that I know what they are.

Ah, those intrusive thoughts... I can relate to this fear. That just thinking something might cause something. That it somehow means I want it. NO NO NO!

Or, worrying that if you think something long enough you'll start to mean it. Though I don't know how anyone would want that, that would just be dumb!

But I still worry about this sometimes anyway. haha

Exactly, and God knows that we don't mean it, because He knows eveything. He knows it even better than we do that we don't mean it. Also, when he saves us he already knows every single thing we will think and every single sin we'll commit throughout our entire lives.
Something I've noticed that really helps these thoughts for me, and maybe this will help someone else, is socializing as much as posssible, and staying busy. The busier I am, the less logical they seem.
Also, exercising can help some too, and getting some sun.
