Dear Practo user,
I understand that having unwanted negative thoughts towards family members might be distressing for you.
Intrusive negative thoughts might be contributing to guilt, shame and other negative emotions experienced but since they are unwanted they might be due to specific psychiatric disorder which needs to assessed in detail by the Mental health Professional for final diagnosis.
You can consult a clinical psychologist who may help you explore and help you manage them effectively.
