Can I call you? Lol. This is just too much type. And I completely understand your situation. I struggle with POCD over past mistakes as well. I’m also a believer and will not stand to watch a brother/sister in Christ suffer. I’d love to share scripture with you and pray for you!

I don’t know about calling me haha but I’m a Christian and I feel like I’ve been under attack mentally for so long I just need a miracle and a breakthrough ya know? I believe in Jesus and that he died on the cross for our sins and he’s alive. If you would like you can share the scripture here

@Just Breathe ❤️ The miracle is just THAT! Because Jesus died we are FREE from our flesh. Ocd is of the flesh. Romans 8:12-25. You must have FAITH, that God can give you the peace, the righteousness that you king for (Romans 8:32): Jesus. Wanna know what’s wrong/sinful? Giving into your flesh: ocd. You owe it nothing. You are not a slave to your flesh. Don’t live like it. Stop waiting around and have faith now! Faith goes beyond believes and into our actions and lifestyle.

@pika14 Hallelujah!!! I never thought of ocd that way and now it makes sense. It’s time to fight back with the word of God. Jesus is the light to my darkness. For so long I thought I was too broken to be blessed or forgiven. Too dirty to find peace. The devil is a liar. Ocd is a liar. It’s time to get my life back that God gave me the gift to live. It’s time for chains to be broken and to break free from the lies. God bless!!!

@Just Breathe ❤️ Amen! The truth is: no matter if what ocd says is true or not, we ALL are broken and don’t deserve the forgiveness and love of Christ. But instead of wallowing in shame, worship him because he is so kind and good to love us and save despite our brokenness! Romans is a great book to read.

@pika14 I will definitely have to read Romans. I’ve had a hard time getting into my bible but I want to and I want to meditate on his word. I feel like it will help so much

@Just Breathe ❤️ It definitely will help in every aspect of your life. Nehemiah is also a great book. It reminds me a lot of the struggle against ocd

@pika14 Thank you so much. I’ve been wondering where to start in the Bible. What’s a good place to start?

@Just Breathe ❤️ Romans is a good place. It lays out the gospel really well. John is good Bc it tells Jesus story. Nehemiah is a good example of what it looks to like to be faithful to God.

The reason I want to call is Bc I’ve dealt with this so specifically and since you are a Christian you have access to real freedom and fulfillment: Christ. And this topic is just so huge lol

Like I remember skipping them because I felt so uncomfortable then. Like somehow I knew it was wrong so I skipped the ones that could of been if that makes sense. I want to be free. I want to be forgiven. I pray to God I can be forgiven and I’m not a bad person I really don’t want to be a monster. Never have never will. I really feel like I don’t deserve to be happy

Don’t get lost in your specific obsessions; the fact that it is of your flesh is reason enough not to give in.

tw: slightly nsfw I don't mean something like "I made a sexual joke and a child was nearby " or "I was 19 and thought a 17 y.o. was attractive" Like something actually bad not the "I'm freaking over this because I have OCD" type of situation, but more like "I did something horrible and I happen to have OCD which makes it even worse" type of situation I did some really fucked up sexual stuff at 14-16 and they haunt me.

*tmi warning* I'm so worried im a P. Ive been crying daily unable to do anything else but ruminate over my real events. When i was 14 (before ocd) i was watching adult content and it was censored. The woman had similar features like hair and skin color as my niece. I remember noticing that and saying "huh i guess I'll imagine that as the adult version of my niece" and I did and after i was finished i moved on and didnt think anything was wrong. I dont know if i ever thought about that again? Its so blurry ocd keeps saying i did it again in a different time but i dont remember its too blurry and its scaring me so badly! I didnt even remember this till like literally last week and i wanted to die! Im 20 for context. When I remembered i immediately broke down in tears. I vaguely rmemeber this other thought i had of her when self pleasuring when I was 16??? I think it was a testing thought out of distress? But im not sure at all! It was extremely vague image and unrealistic i dont think I liked it but maybe i did?! Im so distressed its like i remmeber 2 versions of this particular event which is why I think its ocd false memories from there. Ive been ruminating and spiraling for almost a week. I keep crying i havent ate well at all in days ive been honestly dehydrating myself and i cannot sleep. I feel like a monster. I did the mistake of researching last night and kept comparing myself to the "criteria" of those sickos and like I felt so distressed. I also have been asking ai for hours on end everyday. I feel so distressed im literally crying rn as i write this i cant calm down i feel like this sick individual even tho I dont even like thinking of that at all i dont think I meant ill intent when i was a teen but its killing me inside. I would NEVER harm anyone nor want to or plan to, deep down i know I would never act out in those evil ways but like whats killing me is what if im attracted?! Is this a sign?! Am i one of those people?! Am i attracted to my niece bc of those 2 maybe even 3(??)thoughts years ago?! Did i mean ill intent?! Am I an actual danger?! Am I a monster??? I have so many urges to confess to my mom im so scared what this all means or could mean. I feel so alone and scared. Like legit whenever i get intrusive thoughts about gross stuff i feel disgusted and anxious and push it away. Those thoughts do not bring me pleasure whatsoever but this real event is making me doubt my own identity 😔

I feel nauseous. Extremely sick, i cannot eat, cant sleep well, and I haven't enjoyed things I normally enjoy to cry in bed and spiral for several days already. I feel extremely anxious over my past real events. I remembered something extremely triggering. I used to be morbidly curious about crimes and like I remember when i was a younger teen I watched a dark documentary that honestly i shouldnt have watched. There was this extremely weird scene and i think i felt weirded out but also a little aroused? but only bc I was thinking "lucky, shes already having sex. I wish I was her so i could experience it too." The poor person was like 1-3 years younger than me at the time. I KNOW how wrong that is now i legit feel like im going to throw up rn. Anyway I think I felt a little aroused??? And I think I touched myself a little bit and imagined myself in her place? I dont think I enjoyed it bc i remember it felt forced and weird and i stopped. I never did it again. I feel so sick! I would NEVER watch a documentary like that now as an adult and think or touch myself to it thats just so wrong but im scared that this is a sign im a sicko/p. I remmeber crying at the end of the documentary bc I felt disturbed by the contents but i still put some in my watch later out of morbid curiosity to see more real cases of these crimes bc they scared me. I never watched them again though. It only happened once and it was before my ocd started which SCARES me even more!!! And i wouldnt watch them as an adult either theyre too disturbing! I regret it so badly and feel like a monster bc it was messed up. Like what was wrong with me?! Theyre extremely disturbing to me and I rather avoid such content bc its triggering to my ocd but im afraid now like was that a sign of me possibly being a p? Am I a monster??? Am I in denial? Is this even ocd?! I feel so much shame and guilt it's killing me. 😔
