No not at all. This isn’t normal for Christianity or non Christianity. Although the opportunitist in me is seeing a way to use this to your advantage 😈

yikes. that sounds scary?? i can totally understand why that would make you uncomfortable. it sounds like they’re both engaging in beliefs that are distancing themselves from the world and you. idk what’s normal but i can tell you that i don’t think their behavior is okay especially if it’s uncomfortable and worrying to you. i wonder if there is a person/group of people in your life that you feel like you could talk to about this. therapist comes to mind, but also like a good teacher that you connect with or another trusted person. calling you the chosen one is a little beyond the average fanaticism.

I can indeed relate to this on some level . My parents are both conservative Catholics and we def have strict rules set at home - church weekly, joining on family stuff, but def not crazy and I have my boundaries considering I am 18 . They’ve always encouraged me to become a priest , which I am opposed to only bc I want a normal life and don’t get me wrong I believe in God, just not religious the way they are . But, it does bother me the fact that they only rely on God for all problems and o can’t come to them when I’m in a mental health crisis. They’re not very open minded ; not to mention, I’m also gay which is scary for them to find out bc who knows what they’ll do.

No offense, but you parents sounds really delusional, they may go through some sort of psychosis. I would get away asap or find help for them. This is defined NOT normal.

So not normal to the point where I can’t tell if this is a troll post or not. That’s how not normal this is. Is there a chance ur parents could be in psychosis like… whaaaat (This is all in reference to them calling YOU Jesus and chosen one)

Hey guys- I don’t know if any of you with religion/spirituality ocd struggle with the “unacceptable thoughts” about like evil and stuff but I’m struggling.. it feels like I believe that I want the evil stuff because I had demon-like voices in my head as ahead where I went to talk to God when I was experiencing great distress and then these evil thoughts came in and I let them in and like “ok-ed” evil stuff. Especially because I felt so forced into my faith journey as a kid so it’s like that “feeling rejected -> rebellion thing) but I also know that but I also have such fond memories of feeling so close to God to leaning on Him for so many things. It’s so hard because 90% of my memories as a kid, I struggled with severe ocd and no one knew what it was or how debilitating it could be I’m trying the ERP with these thoughts but😭 have any of you gone through the same things? It’s so strong In my mind because I know there’s actual spiritual warfare so I feel like - pray for me guys

Is anyone else here a Christian dealing with ocd? I could use some support because I've been having a hard time growing close to God ever since my ocd started getting bad. I deal with a lot of religious intrusive thoughts such as being unforgivable, or being cursed or possessed. What's some advice?

If you suffer from Christian OCD and feel Jesus hates you and you’re going to hell every few seconds but I keep fighting it because when I pray it says Lucifer and I refuse to pray to him. If I do Jesus will send me to hell. I’m terrified. When does it end. Some Christian’s are so peaceful, I want that.. why.. I feel cursed forever. I have faith in others journey… not mine. I’m stuck like this forever. My mind will never be the same.
