Hi! Question: (Religious scrupulosity)

I struggle with this too OCD is tough with the thoughts...I think it is just something you have to pray on to ask God for clarity, not compulsively of course. I don't believe God is instilling fear and guilt but always good to take it to him in prayer.

All.The.Time. That’s a Hallmark of Scrupulosity.

I hope this helps. SCRUPULOSITY PURE RELIGION Condemning Ennobling; uplifting Damning Exalting; to help us be like God Critical; demeaning Loving Fear-inducing; afraid of God Peaceful Overwhelming Hopeful Restricting, with focus stuck in the past Conducive to personal and eternal progress Discouraging Uplifting Demanding: “Religious practice must be 100-percent perfect or it’s worthless”; “I must perfect myself” Flexible and forgiving “I am perpetually guilty” “I can be worthy, while not being perfect” “Christ’s Atonement doesn’t apply to me.” “Christ is my Savior, and His Atonement applies to me personally.”

hey, i totally get how confusing and frustrating it can be trying to untangle your true feelings from the OCD noise. it's like your mind is constantly playing tricks on you, and it's exhausting. 😓 i'm actually dealing with a different theme of ocd, so i might not have all the answers you're looking for. but, i found something really helpful recently - the "unstuck ocd therapy tools" app. my local ocd support group recommended it, and it's been a game-changer for me. it offers ai-personalized guidance and exercises right when you need them. also, the ocd stories podcast has been a great resource for me, giving me insights and making me feel less alone in this. hope this helps a bit! ✨
