@pluto Yeah I wanna think it's because I've been terrified of that that things related to that subject have been manifesting a lil more. But I will never be too sure and that's what kills me. I really don't feel like continuing to think about it but even when I do distract myself it's still in the back of my mind. We all know that's how ocd is ☠

Read 2 Corinthians 12:7. Paul is talking about a “thorn in his flesh”. He had an illness, maybe mental or physical, that was hindering his ministry. However he says that “when I am weak; then I am strong”. God doesn’t want us to have OCD. But he allows “bad things” to happen for a reason. Perhaps to bring us closer to him. People with OCD, myself included, hate uncertainty and like to be in control of situations. So it’s important to remember that God is in control. When doing the ERP/SOS on this app. I have changed the messages to this: “You May have run someone over with your car. I will accept the uncertainty, move on and now God is in control” Perhaps this is a good message for you to use? It has helped me!

Remember that the evil one disguises himself as and angel of light and love to attack the mind, his favorite tool with OCDers is confusion. Remember to rebuke the devil in the name of Jesus and wait for that still small voice from God. Demons scream in our heads, God waits for your soul to hear him.

@cwgrlup1990 Definitely true. I'm constantly renewing my mind and covering it with the blood of Jesus aligning my thoughts with His.

Since you are religious, you should know that the devil can give you dreams. So the dreams could have not been Divine. Or maybe you are SO SO stressed about this that your brain created this dream.

Are you in therapy? This is a perfect situation to tackle in therapy. It sounds so exhausting to have your mind trying to figure this all out. Praying you find support in people with your beliefs or at the very least someone who can help you work through this.

@AllanC93 I agree with the Bible verse. But accepting uncertainty is really hard for me. It's like "admitting" you are something you're NOT. Just because I get distracted/forget about it for a little while doesnt mean it doesn't bother me anymore. Idk if thats one way of accepting uncertainty.

Before going to sleep in my prayer time i always rebuke any dream that's not my own nor God's that's the thing.

Sometimes things we are scared of make it into our nightmares. Ever watch a scary movie then have nightmares? Or be nervous about something and dream of it? I have harm OCD and had a dream about almost poisoning someone the other night. No matter if you really have this problem or not you are still able to make decisions that align with your values. Sounds like you have no desire to harm anyone. Try to focus on something to distract or calm you before sleeping perhaps

Hey all. I need help. I am sitting on my bathroom floor freaking out and convinced that all my work towards getting better has gone out the window. I am so scared of the “bad guy” getting me all the time. I constantly feel like I have to prove to God that I don’t mean these awful feelings and thoughts that I have about the bad guy. I’ve had trouble sleeping tonight, going in and out of consciousness, all while dealing with bad thoughts going in and out of my head. Finally I woke up and am flooded with “you have so many thoughts and feeling that you let slide while you were trying to sleep. You had thoughts that you accepted the bad guy and you didn’t dispute them before you tried to move on. You have so much to answer for.” So now I’m sitting here in my bathroom floor hysterically crying and begging God to believe me when I say I don’t any of these thoughts or feelings… please someone help

Hi I have a question. I love jesus he changed my life and Made me a better person but my ocd loves to confuse me so I have a problem where I remember something in the past and I repented ofc but not it makes me question my intentions and my ocd always puts the are you lying to God card which makes me super scared and then doubt occurs and I'm so exhausted I misinterpret a lot like the voice of God I keep hearing tell the truth and repent now that's it all Good if it were true see ik I'm telling the truth not because of some feeling it's because ocd's version is so ridiculous but It feels soo real I just Want go to God without feeling this fear if I'm lying to him and I fear if somehow I'm wrong. So much anxiety and questions like what if that is gods voice what if I'm wrong pls pray for me and I see videos and I'm scared if that video was sent to me by God telling me to "tell the truth" I say that because my ocd is causing me to doubt the truth being that ocd is wrong

Hello 😭, so uhm I’m kind of in the point of my POCD where I’m just tired. I just need to get it all out and get some sort of instruction of how to just idk live? So for me my childhood is pretty blurry. I have a few real event blended with false memory events there but other than that I’m a csa victim. And the way I tried to cope? By fetishising nyself, making CP of myself, seeing my life goal as being used, raped and a prostitue. Self destructive behaviour through talking to pedophiles and seeing my only worth as if I was sexually attractive. Which made me kind of numb to CP as a coping mechanism I guess. And heres’s where my main event of REOCD/false memory ocd comes in. I have a few events in my life when I’ve accidentally stumbled across CP ish mangas or just plan abuse and not had a big reaction. Some of them I even liked the story. And my ocd LOVES playing with it, making me truly believe I enjoy and get of from CP. I’ve also had quite a few dreams. A few days ago I had a dream about me getting triggered by something I did in the dream. Which I now can’t figure out if it actually was a dream. But also moments overall where I’ve unintentionally touched my private part while my siblings are in the room or when I found a guy 2 years younger than me pretty in 4th grade. Or a few of my only friends who turned out to be younger than me, and I had talked about sexual things (like fan fictions, my trauma ect) with them. AHSHB I absolutely hate ruminating and I’m tired so so so so so so tried 😭 idk help me? Please TT
