If its OCD it makes you believe that you are not able to be redeemed, you'll feel guilt, shame, and worthlessness and overall you'll be obsessed. But if God's convicting you none of this will happen. You'll understand what you have done and feel the need to repent and do better.

I don't think God would convict you of something like ocd. I've had OCD about the unparnable sin until I found out what it really was. It's basically not accepted Jesus up to the day you die. It's not slandering or anything else like that, still, I still have these thoughts about what about this, or what about that, I still have flashbacks and I still fear fear, but I keep going living Day by day. Don't think about the future, or the past, think about living day by day and surviving it.

Living with OCD like this is a real pain. you question yourself every day and I ruminate constantly fearing God wouldn't love me. Still I get help from other people and fight this thing out. After all I might have a thing of like putting a middle finger to a stained glass window with a dove but I don't do it. It hurts. And confusion, talk to your pastor and also talk to get the help that you need. Keep fighting the good fight.

I would just look to the Bible so if you get convicted about something the Bible doesn’t condemn it probably is your ocd

@rem Usually grey area is probably just ocd but it entirely depends on what it is, if you don’t mind give me an example

@rem I mean that’s such a minor thing, if you like him for his personality despite his sin it sounds like you ocd is just getting at you

Does anyone else struggle with knowing which thought or voice is from god or if it’s just your ocd?

Confusion
Sometimes I have thoughts that I would normally assume to be ocd, not sound like ocd. I start to think/feel that it's God telling me to do these things?? I then end up feeling guilty for not immediately implementing these things into my life. I hate that so much of what used to feel like ocd seems unclear. I don't feel like a good person. I know a lot of sermons aren't made with ocd in mind, but I feel like I'm not listening to God if I don't listen to thoughts I would've thought were ocd before

God
I’m a Christian, but my OCD makes it feel like I’m always disappointing God. I deal with scrupulosity. I remember signing the cross compulsively throughout the night to where I was in physical pain. But the doctrines of, “God died on the cross for you. Stop being in ungrateful.” I was doing this because I had a bracelet with a cross on it, and when I moved my arm in a certain direction it would be an upside down cross. The filthy feeling I felt was so bad, that i felt like it was going being a demon into the room if I didn’t pray. I spent that whole night signing the cross in tears. Then the next morning I got up like nothing happened. I still deal with forms of this. Like feeling God is going to punish me if I sin. So if a bad thing happens in the day, I blame myself. For example, if I listened to a sing with a curse word in it, I would blame myself for things going wrong later in the day. I still do. Not to mention the things I restrict myself from to please Him. Even though I know He is already pleased with me. There is nothing like the depression and dissatisfaction of feeling like a you did something wrong while everyone else can do that same thing freely. I can’t tell the difference between my OCD and conviction. Can any fellow Christians help me out, and give me tips. I already know Jesus loves me, but merely being told that doesn’t help anything.
