Hey it's okay you're not alone I have been there and i went to therapist and everything went good don't give up your thoughts doesn't define who you are, you're thinking about that because religion is so important in your life and you love God so much so your brain trying to scare you say no fight It dear you're not alone you didn't do anything wrong I hope God forgives us all he feels us he knows we love him and we are not our thoughts don't let your thoughts convince you other wise you got this I have been there and it got better don't give up

You’re ok, just breathe. If you believe in God, you’ll know he is all forgiving. He knows you have a disorder that causes this - he would understand. Put on some headphones and listen to music to drown out the noise in your head.

@lavagirl I just feel like I should be freaking out and worrying about it. And sometimes I just let the thought happen and don’t try to stop them idk why I do that

I’ve had this too, ESPECIALLY WHILE PRAYING 😭 It’s the worst. I’m dealing with a new ocd subtype which is the worst and it has made praying and living life so difficult🥲

It’s been almost 4 years since I had a severe mental break followed a few months later by my OCD diagnosis. My mind was truly locked into an impossible quest for certainty regarding the presence of sin in my mind, heart and actions in past, present and future events. I’ve been there with you so many times. God is with you, He is for you and He understands the fractured, confused and fearful state of our thinking. He knows our suffering and He has called you by name. I think Faith in the midst of OCD looks something like: acknowledging and accepting the presence of the thoughts that terrify us and surrendering the entire web of that experience at the throne of grace. Praying for the strength to accept our condition in this moment, rather than obsessively checking our “contaminated” thoughts through prayer. Praying that you may experience grace and radical levels of acceptance through the power of the Holy Spirit today.

Self pleasure and intrusive thoughts :/
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

Can anyone relate: OCD prayers
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
