• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

My OCD has been coming and going with various themes. I went to church today, and when the pastor mentioned about believing in Jesus and trusting Him. "Even the devil's believe." And my mind took that and ran with it. I had a thought come out of no where in my head that was "You don't have a relationship with me."

That really scared me. I am trying to trust God, I make time to talk with Him and to read my Bible almost every day, even if it's a few pages.

So my newest OCD obsession is that I don't really have a relationship with God, or I can't/don't trust Him, etc.

I am going to a psychiatrist to possibly get my meds changed if the insurance stuff is worked out.

Hello sweetheart. I add new obsessions daily. It's the hardest thing I have ever went through. I have several right now. One that I don't want to go to Heaven. One that I can't trust God because he isn't nothing to me. That's a hard one btw. One that I'm evil. One that the Holy Spirit is creepy living inside me. Let me say though sweetheart. Although this is hard I know that these are lies from the pits of hell. Satan wants you to believe them and they feel so real so he can tear you down. He wants you to try to work hard to earn back God through trying to counteract those thoughts. Jesus is the answer. I am struggling right now too. Especially with trust. Just keep calling on Jesus. Don't quit no matter what because that's what the enemy wants. God loves you even if you don't feel it. I love you too.

I agree with IndeedJesus, Celtic! I too have struggled for years with the odd thoughts. It seems as though when I was "through" with one a new one would pop up. They are just attacks from the enemy. Hang in there! I know its tough. I've been there. You will get through!

There is a link between OCD, BiPolar, and other such brain issues, with a certain mineral deficiency. Have any of you tried supplementing with the right type of Magnesium? One popular laxative (for about 100 years) is based in one form of Magnesium, so DO NOT try using that. If the Magnesium is absorbed through the skin, there is a better absorption that bypasses filtering through the liver. Magnesium Oil (condensed seawater) is an excellent way to do this. There are other things it helps, including Migraines and Muscle Cramps.
