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 😊
man these few weeks have been so hard. i’m in the process of getting diagnosed with ocd, im almost positive i have it because everything on here relates to me on an insane level. but im just so scared dude. these thoughts of me harming someone are so scary and im so scared im gonna eventually act on them and i know i never want to but its still so scary. like sometimes when i talk to my mom about it i think in the back of my head “you know you want to” when i dont, and it makes me think or gets me scared that i do. these thoughts literally just happened out of nowhere and it messes me up so bad my literal perspective on life in general is just messed up. like i view life as its more common to be a bad person and its rare/hard to be good. can someone please just pray for me or just wish me better days. i dont even like looking at myself anymore and im scared i give off creepy vibes to myself or others now, this sucks so much
Man… it’s like, if I get over one obsession, another comes, and when I run out of new obsessions, old ones come back. Do I… not know how to be content? It reminds me of when Ru Paul told Katya, “You’re addicted to the anxiety.” I don’t know how to change this, but I’m glad I’m recognizing it. It’s awful — I can’t let myself be happy without punishing myself for my past mistakes, and honestly, I just have to just let myself be human. Gonna try meditating and reading more. Any other tips greatly appreciated.
About 2 months ago, I started to worry about making bad prayers. I have meta ocd so it was very complicated. My brain would essentially stimulate me to make certain prayers by praying for every possible thing, showing how easy it was to do. It was so bad I initially tried sleeping, and anything to avoid bad prayers, but that wasn’t enough. I kept imagining people yelling at me to not make prayers. Eventually, I was fed up with it, and felt like I got washed up with a wave of anger towards those people in my head (I imagined them being real people), and ended up praying “if someone says something online that’s going to lead to me being triggered and killing myself, kill them first please,” with at least a feeling of anger towards people. Then immediately after I didn’t care and thought “woah woah woah.” I don’t know why this happened. Maybe it’s a part of it. But it felt targeted and malicious.
