Did I just lose control of my complusion?

Alright, I was at work and at times I get these nervous attacks where I think I’m on the verge of compulsively doing something bad, like touching or hitting someone.

This one moment, I saw someone walking towards me and the thought of touching them came into my head. I started to become more and more nervous as I got closer to the person. I started to have thoughts like “do it, do it.”

I also felt my arm move slowly towards their way. I didn’t think touched them, but what freaks me out is that I think I was trying to force myself to fulfill that compulsion. I’ve had many of these before, but I felt very sick to my stomach and nervous this time.

Am I losing control or did I lose control just then and there?

Can someone help?

the same exact thing happens to me all the time. I get these weird impulses that I obsessively think about and have to fight. Like if a get a new game or something, I get the urge to take it and throw it out the car window. I don't know why. And It's kind of scary when your body starts to play out the thought.
