I struggled with this theam as well when the pandemic started. remember that intrusive thoughts are intrusive thoughts even if it feels reel. I still deal with it today, I would think the opposite as a compilation. The escape is to do exposures, I know it’s feels scary but you can make it, If it’s the spirit of fear; it did not come from God, remember that God would never leave you or forsake you. Because fear dose not come from God, then it Trigger Warning ⚠️ the (Devil) who condemns. Not Jesus who died on the cross for yours, my sins & everyone sins. I know reinsurance is bad for OCD, but also this is important to know. In the end of my junior year of high school, I started having similar intrusive thoughts about blastfame of the Holy Spirit, I thought I was going to die, or God was going to leave me and take every body else to heaven. I still struggle with intrusive thoughts now. I’m doing better but still struggle, I’m also scared about having intrusive thoughts about Trigger Warning ⚠️ (the Mark of beast) Just know that the Spirit of fear doesn’t come from God. Learning to trust that God would never forsake you will take time, take time to know that God want to help you in this situation, you can talk to God about anything, it’s the enemy luring to you so you will feel condemned. God is allowing you to have these intrusive thoughts so you can get over your fear so you can experience Gods love. Remember God love you and he sent his son Jesus (him self as God) to dye on the cross for your sins.

Please remember this: Conviction is from God to lead you to more closeness with Him. Condemnation is from the Prince of Lies who is trying to incite fear. Next time you gets these thoughts and the devil makes you feel guilty just say to him…”yup you’re right, I thought this or I did this, I am a sinner, that is true. But it’s not about me and my works! It’s about Jesus and what He did on the cross! I will hope in His bountiful mercy”

Also go to Mark Dejesus’s website and watch his videos about religious OCD. You’ll be glad you did. God bless.

I love Mark Dejesus ! I was in a comment section about another OCD video and someone recommended him . I’ve been watching him ever since . He is literally the exact example of me . Also , it was thoughts before that would come to my mind , but now I feel as if these thoughts originate from me . Like I feel as if I respond to things in my head with these thoughts now . If I have any question about anything bad , it gives room for the blasphemous thoughts to come in . Hopefully that makes sense . All in all , I honestly feel as if it’s me now .

Wow , well said . I never knew how much people went through these things . It’s a lot . I just got introduced to this . My wife found this for me last week . Just did my first session with my therapist . I also love seeing and meeting people that I can relate to . I definitely believe that God is going to help me because I have a tremendous amount of fear in my life….especially with these thoughts . It’s so hard not thinking about them . I’ve dealt with them for about a year now . My mind is so trained to think about them and make everything blasphemous. If I see , hear , or do anything spiritually then the thoughts come . I also feel that the thoughts originate from me now . I question my heart all the time , you know ? I’m always rebuking the thoughts to where I’ve developed an OCD with rebuking the thoughts now . Literally every day , every second , every minute , I’m having these thoughts . I want freedom in my mind . I want to experience God’s assurance of love and favor over me . I am so ready to one day get that assurance that He is going to give me . I’ll never even have to worry about these lies anymore . I’ll be praying for you . Let’s both focus on God’s love for us and all of mankind .

I actually have watched so many videos including the ones that you’ve just sent me . I literally spent so much time on YouTube and google for this matter . I agree that’s it’s a lot relieving knowing that I’m not the only one . If you don’t mind me asking , what do you mean by other themes?

I hope this helps, I think it’s good to know you or I are not alone dealing with this I also struggle with other themes that are more taboo. Like real event themed and it feels like there’s no escape. And I always punish my self. Over time I learned that I am not obligated to do those compulsions even when I still struggle. These videos might be helpful. https://youtu.be/G-8UvE4VTWY https://youtu.be/EDfYnM2UtN8

I’m sharing this bc I need advice or even support from anyone who can relate. If you can’t relate and don’t think you’ll say anything helpful or kind pls don’t comment anything… I’ve been struggling with somethings that’s making me question myself. There has been moments while self pleasuring when I get intrusive thoughts, in those moments it feels like I’m enjoying or even self pleasuring myself bc of the thought. Right after I immediately have an anxiety attack and my HEART drops bc it feels terrible I feel like a disgusting monster :( ppl have told me I haven’t done a bad bc of how intense my guilt and panic are but I keep thinking that MAYBE I made a horrible decision in the moment and the guilt is just realising that it’s just wrong this doesn’t make sense to me because I’ve always told myself that I would never act on this in 1 million years and I’ve been known that these things are wrong so I’m just like constantly questioning myself these feelings and exact same situation has happened two times already I even promised myself that I wouldn’t act on anything beforehand and yeah, I still felt like I did act on my thought during my alone time I’m genuinely convinced that I’m a horrible and it’s even got into the point where I don’t wanna be here anymore and I don’t even think this is my OCD :( tbh

Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with intrusive thoughts&images. At first i had intrusive thoughts around my partner, now it’s centred around me & I can’t be around window ledges or medication due to a story I read online(it’s too triggering for me) . Sometimes I feel like I can’t leave my bed due to the thoughts being so overwhelming I just break down and want to sleep. I aren’t taking any medication or therapy yet. I worry that if I don’t give my thoughts a reaction that my thoughts are true and not OCD. I’ve had these thoughts 24/7 for 2 months.

TW religious ocd OCD is turning innapropriate desires into prayers. Essentially the best way I can describe it is everyone has innapropriate desires sometimes. One example is if I’m suicidal, I wouldn’t mind if a meteor hit while I was asleep. Obviously that affects other people too, but if it’s not my fault, selfishly I want it. Well, it essentially turns that “I want this” thought into me thinking towards god “this would be nice if it happens.” Especially if it wasn’t my fault at all, I wouldn’t mind. My brain can VERY easily turn that into a prayer. All I have to do is direct it for a second towards god, and boom, technically it’s a prayer. Has anyone else had this? It really seems like ocd, even if it is VERY technically a prayer. It doesn’t seem like a normal, thought out prayer
