I went through this last year! It can be tough because I thought if I was having these thoughts in church, I shouldn’t be there or I wasn’t paying attention etc., 1. God has grace for you 2. Way more people struggle with paying attention in church than they’d like to admit 3. Sit with the discomfort. Over time, it will get easier.

Yes, you may feel it’s hard for a different reason than me but I feel like I am not connecting enough with god in the ways that others do and I feel bad that I can’t tune in to what is being said even though I want to SO BAD

I knew I did when younger but I think that had something to do with my brother wearing a frock when he was in a church choir and had to leave or I'd laugh at him. 😅

I used to be like that at a church I used to go to. Barely understood the messages and connected to what they were saying. Then went to a new church and I looove it! So it depends on which church you can connect to the most

Theme switch: Scrupolosity
OCD has decided to latch onto my religion (Christianity) and I find myself doubting my belief in Jesus Christ. Yet when I research, I even find myself doubting the atheistic and agnostic approach as well. I’ve been a Christian since I was 13, growing up in a non-Christian in truth but nominally Christian household. This is rough. Any advice?

Religious OCD
Hi everyone. I'm wondering if anyone has any tips for dealing with religious OCD. I'm a Christian and I struggle with Harm OCD but then somehow, my religious beliefs got mixed into this where I am suddenly asking all these questions on whether God/Jesus is even good. And as a result, I feel so distant from my faith which makes dealing with my harm OCD so much harder 😢 Any advice would be appreciated.

Religion/OCD
Hello, This is my first community post and I would like to know if anyone else struggles with Religious OCD themes, I'm a Christian but please share any perspective you have. - What do your thoughts look like? - How do you know they are related to OCD? For me it's becoming a constant, 24/7 cycle and it's very draining. I want to find some kind of peace between my thoughts and God so I recently started NOCD therapy again. I'm not totally sure how this all works (treatment, OCD diagnosis, etc.). But if anything I want to know that I am not alone with Religious OCD. Thank you
