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

Advice?
I’m a Christian and I’m in my first relationship, often feeling guilty/uncomfortable with various things in relation to sexual purity. I’m struggling to know when things are OCD or genuine conviction. Any advice on how to know?

How do I know if I’m being convicted by the Lord or if it’s just my compulsions and intrusive thoughts

Scrupulosity OCD
Today I was listening to a sermon, and it was about pleasing God. Sometimes the preacher mentioned people who are not right with God, and I got scared. Sometimes I wonder what if it is conviction. But then I go and I pray but there’s some anxiety and I feel like I’m trying to force myself to do something. So it feels like either I was triggered by the sermon and as a compulsion I tried to pray really hard, or am I ignoring something? I feel like I am being OCD but I fear what if that is conviction. I know that repentance is not always easy, but I feel like sometimes I put unnecessary burdens on myself.
