Hey, first I want to say I’m so sorry your feeling all of this. OCD can be so mean some times. I’ve been in really dark places feeling so alone and undeserving because of the thoughts I was having. As a Christian it hurt even more because I couldn’t accept the thoughts. But then I learned that I can’t control my thoughts and that the real me was the sick and depressed person struggling each day because I just wanted this all to stop. You’re not alone. God would never ever abandon you over a disease that you have. If it helps OCD can be seen in brain scans it’s not something imaginary.. it is real and it does cause unwanted thoughts. Jesus died for you so that you could live. When he died he took on your sins and your burdens. You’re free because of him. All you can do is now to thank him is move forward. Do the best you can everyday even if some days are crappy. You deserve so much love and life. YOU KEEP GOING! You’re not alone. We really are some of the strongest people. It’s not fair ❤️🩹

Also, quick tip something that helped was externalizing the thoughts. When you have a thought say “ My ocd is giving me intrusive thoughts today.” And gently move on. If you can’t stop thinking about something say “ My ocd is fixated on the is right now and again gently move on.” Sorry that was a long message but I hope it helped. Sending you so much healing ❤️🩹

Don’t give up! You are not alone. I have felt that before as well. OCD is not who you truly are. It is really difficult to deal with and I’m sorry you are in a tough spot.

You’ve got this. I’m so glad you were able to pull yourself away from the edge. Take things moment by moment and try to keep grounded in the present moment.

This is exactly what I go through in an OCD crisis. I'm unable to process emotions, understand my responsibility in order to learn and grow, and accept God's forgiveness and grace. I'd really like to talk to you about all these things.

@bekind94 For some reason snap isn't sending a reset password link. I haven't been in a while and couldn't remember it. 😟 Do you use telegram by any chance?

I’ve been struggling with religious OCD for the past month or so (blasphemous intrusive thoughts, fear of going to hell, etc). I’m a Christian. I’ve been in ERP and I’m learning to let the thoughts just be which is hard, but I’m struggling with the overwhelming feelings of guilt about having the intrusive thoughts. I know the thoughts aren’t from me and don’t reflect my true self, but sometimes if feels like I’m bringing the thoughts on if that makes sense. Does anyone have any advice on overcoming the guilt? OCD is also telling me I’m never going to get over this and my relationship with God will never be the same. I just want to be able to praise God without all of this and it’s making me incredibly sad and lonely. Any words of encouragement are appreciated.

I used to have religious OCD. Still kinda do. Accidentally thought something bad about God once, panicked thought something bad about the Holy Spirit. Fell into doom. This was recently after recomitting myself to Christ. Since then I pretty much gave up. Unfortunately, it also led to me compromising my morals many times because I figured I was going to hell anyway. I wish I knew what OCD was then. I think it would have saved me a lot of pain. I no longer have a relationship with God, and fear I never will again.

How do I deal with the thought that my OCD thoughts because of their nature are separating me from God? The one night I couldn’t sleep and prayed about it and just said God if I die and go to hell over this just know I’m doing the best I can. This isn’t me and I don’t want it. — I know that it doesn’t work this way but if you have any advice please share. And also please be nice and respectful of my beliefs. Thank you a struggling Christian.
