Is it OCD?

I feel like I keep thinking about negative outcomes of my actions. For example, while walking down a stairway thoughts like "what would happen if I slip?", "how would the cold railings feel against my head." Keep popping in my head involuntarily.
Or if I'm looking down from top of my building i imagine myself freely falling and hitting my body on the concrete.

These thoughts, although, last a few seconds keep repeating in the back of my head.

Do you guys think i have OCD ? Can it be serious? What do i do...
 
doesnt sound like OCD to me.

im no expert but i get thoughts like that too. ive known it as obsessive or intrusive thoughts (not OCD) that kind of come from a thinking pattern, might be caused or worsened by anxiety and/or depression.
I dont think its 'serious' but probably not the best way to be thinking. only things i can think of that might help are to not dwell on those thoughts, dont stress if you do think them, but try not to do it when you can - the more you do the more you'll think them type thing, maybe try thinking something else to distract yourself. only other thing i can think of is something like meditation, which might quiet the mind a bit and make it easier to control those thoughts.
