Please could I ask for a prayer?

Hi, I've been a having therapy through NOCD since February but this is the first post I've written. I have had OCD since teenage years but it got severe nearly 7 years ago (I'm 34 now). I think I have several themes and my new intrussive thought, which started about 10 days ago, is so strange, illogical, distressing and riddiculous, I don't think it fits into a theme at all. I feel so hopeless, lost and full of fear. I am mentally exhausted. I am a Christian and I would really appreciate any prayers for help and healing please? I saw another post where someone said about praying for others and I thought that was so nice. I would also like to pray for anyone who would like me to. God bless.

Tell those thoughts “no amount of analysis will be enough. Maybe that thing will happen, maybe it won’t. I don’t have to figure it out right now”. Praying for you!

Praying. I'm a Christian too. I've dealt with religious OCD for decades. I wouldn't worry if you think you have a new theme. That's what OCD does. It always comes in slightly different packages to try to keep us fooled. But in reality, ALL of the themes are really just the same old OCD. I'm here to listen!! I want to help you if I can. What is bothering you? :)

Thank you very much for your kindess and prayer. Your message was really helpful and a good reminder. I've had a couple of bad spirals in the past, this one has felt particularly bad. I think it has just been how something so illogical that cannot be factually true managed to grip on so tightly. The fear and mental exhaustion has been so hard. OCD is very good at keeping me fooled! I am so sorry that you have had to deal with religious OCD for decades. I hope you are doing well and I will pray for you too. God bless.

@HannahApril Maybe it would be helpful to look back on some of my other posts? Let me know if anything helps you. I really hate to hear how much you are suffering. Please write whenever you need to :):)

I am praying 🙏 for you right now ✝️. I say a daily Our Father and Hail Mary in addition to other prayers.

I’m also a Christian and deal with intrusive thoughts- terrible, disturbing ones that make me isolate sometimes. Satan has a clever way of assisting/attacking our weak points. A prayer i say frequently is “Jesus, I rebuke all voices that are not from the kingdom of Heaven” and that really helps ground myself to stop a loop

Whenever I feel severely overwhelmed and my ocd thoughts almost send me into a panic attack I replay “ mighty name of Jesus” by hope darst over and over again and read my Bible and highlight or color with the song on repeat . Praying for you ♥️
