Please pray
Please pray that I can be happy without punishing myself and stay happy. I know that I’m not always going to be happy but I would love to stay happy when I do get happy

you got this. just try to stay present in the moment and sit with your joy.
I'm sorry you're going through this! I will pray for you. Also feel free to message or reply with anything you are feeling right now ❤️I'm just a stranger but I'm so proud of you for surviving a 100% of your worst days, I know you got this and you should see it too xx
@Preena Hey, I know you don’t know me, but could I talk to you for some advice?
@JulioKelle Yes, feel free to say anything! OCD can be so so difficult to live with! ❤️
@Preena I’ve gotten over it, but my mind likes to slip in false memories that don’t make sense. Idk if you’ve ever experienced that
I don't mean to overstep but you mention praying and a verse that was shared to me was Joshua 1:9 "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” I get that way myself. I know that we can't be happy 24/7 but like someone said we have to do our best to be present and not let the OCD take that away from us.
@Beevs One of my favorite verses 🙏🏻
I know its scary, but if you can learn to stop punishing yourself, good things are to come! You've got this. Here's to your bright future :)💝 ✨
Amen, I’m in the same exact boat with you. We can get through this together🖤
Happiness as a continuation, is only in heaven. At earth, happiness and otherwise is just temporary. Do you know why? Because it is just a sampler for what is waiting in heaven for us. So enjoy the few moments of sample of happiness, and pray for the lasting happiness. Also, live through the tuff times, and pray that you will only will experience those samples. Pray to a loving Merciful God, and pray for me, as I will pray for you. I wish you happiness 😊
The compulsive praying for harm on others is back. I know compulsions are a choice, but right now, it feels impossible not to do them. I was spiraling because I thought about losing my boyfriend, and that scared me so much. But then, my brain twisted it with thinking that I would feel liberated and find comfort and new love if my boyfriend were “out of the way” and to this I almost felt excited? I don’t want to lose him. I don’t want him to die or go away. I don’t want him to be gone. But then, that spiraled into these awful thoughts where I felt like I had to pray for harm or death on him. I don’t know why I feel the urge to do this. It doesn’t feel like it will make anything better; it just makes me feel like it’s more likely to happen. I feel trapped in them. I don’t understand why my brain keeps doing this, can anyone help? Please
im scared. I keep compulsively praying for bad things or death on the people I love. I don’t understand why. It doesn’t make anything better. I’m scared that these prayers count. I seal them as I do with most of my prayers in Jesus name and with a double amen. I’m scared God will want to teach me a lesson and make something come true. I’m scared I mean these prayers, I’m petrified. If something happened, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself :( I don’t know where to go from here
Last night when I was laying in bed, I was just thinking about my religion. I’m a Christian and for some reason, I said a bad word in my mind about God I’m not gonna type the word on here. I can barely even say it. I just don’t understand why I thought that And I prayed for forgiveness sometimes I feel guilty. Sometimes I don’t. I don’t understand why I said that I know it’s not true. I know I don’t mean it, but what if I did what if God is going to punish me now for that thought I know we’re human and we make mistakes but I just can’t forgive myself for this. I haven’t been able to think about anything else. I’ve been miserable since this happened. I’m just so done and I don’t know what else I can do.
