It's not just about praying and worshipping Him. It's about putting your heart mind soul AND faith in HIM. He is the almighty God. Nothing is impossible for Him. He created us. He knows our anatomy. He can tweak anything around including our ocd! The problem is man who lack faith! faith the size of a mustard is sufficient enough to apply God's word into your life! I may sound like a broken record but i don't think it's been understand that" By his stripes we have been healed" !!! while god points Out our virtues Satan points out our weaknesses like ocd. Ocd is an attack of the enemy against us. IT DOES NOT ever come from God. God's plans are to prosper and never to harm us. He made us according to His image! Does He have ocd? No! There's more to spirituality than just believing in God. You need to follow Him and apply His word to your daily life.

When I was 8 and had contamination OCD very bad, my grandfather took me to church to be “prayed upon.” This is basically the evangelical version of an exorcism; the pastor puts oil on your head and hits your forehead a few times with his palm or fingers, as a large crowd of people pray and scream loudly around you. My grandfather did not believe therapy or medications were helping me. He wanted the pastor to “pray off” the mental illness. I was terrified. The experience was very traumatic. I felt shame and guilt about my OCD for the first time and have carried that stigma with me well into adulthood. The point I am trying to make is this: I don’t believe any god can cure OCD; there is no cure. There can be healing properties to faith but modern science must be embraced in order to experience recovery. Do not allow your father’s religious views cause you years of uncertainty and turning your back from treatment, because it will only prolong your suffering. Trust me, I learned that the hard way.

Yes Amen!!! Keep believing for your healing. Lets not let the enemy fool us in telling us we will have ocd forever that is a lie from the pits of hell! God will give us the desires of our heart. We WILL be healed in Jesus name @LaPink

Have any of you ever felt like God is perfectly capable of helping you with your mental health, but just chooses not to for some reason, and so you get angry and frustrated? Bc I feel that way sometimes, but i don’t stay mad for too long. But whenever i’m not frustrated, i’m just feeling hopeless, like why is this going on?

What’s involved in this process? •demons •tyrants (actual people) •replacing hobbies with church I believe we were all born with talents, interests, I don’t think religion or spirituality should ever be a hobby or something for fun or to dive into when ur bored religion or spirituality should only be approached when needed needed crucially needed is what I’m starting to believe. That just makes sense. Why would God want us thanking him constantly when he just wants to help us and want us to know like “hey bro here if u need anything holler at me.” and like he kicks up his feet and does his own thing, like what if god is just like that and then here I am having mad anxiety that I just put Gods name I lowercase but I meant no disrespect towards god when doing that. n that’s my point again, why would the person who created me to experience feeling grass on my thighs and walking this earth to look at sunsets he creates for us each day n eat good yellow mangos n explore rainforest and ultimately “LIVE LIFE.”, of course I would assume the one who wanted us to experience life on earth for a bit would maybe perhaps be like any ordinary day and say, “make good decisions.” Before you walk out the door, like imagine the whole Bible was just those 3 factors I’ve just pointed out •live life • make good decisions •I’m here if you need me I’m really gonna create the type of God that works for me idc anymore this is really giving me so much peace Do/Did many/most people with OCD have an absent parent/abusive parent? I’m starting to think that could also be another reason why OCD is developed Is that already a proven fact? Would make lots of sense.

She laughed and said that everyone has these thoughts "i didn't tell her about the REALLY fucked up thoughts i experience cuz i was kinda scared" and then she said it's the demon just say ur prayers and they'll go away Even though i kept on trying and trying to convince her that they're clearly not normal but she kept on refusing and it kinda sounded like she didn't want to admit and believe that her daughter has a mental illness which sucks
