I have religious OCD and it is spiking now. I had issues with the numbr of the beast and asked several people, including this forum and everyone said that we should not fear it if we see it. And it helped me.
But now I am really confused.
I have issues with entertainment. I feel like playing video games, wathing movies, listening to secular music is sinful. Not the violent ones, all. It is because of the OCD, and I avoided a lot of things because of it. But yesterday I played a little game (nothing bad it was a logical game) after months. And I saw the number of the beast 3 times that day. I saw it today too. Why?
Is it a sign that playing or entertainment is bad? Or am I overthinking?
Or do we see a lot of numbers but when I see this one I get anxious? I just dont know what to do. Should I avoid games and entertainment again or more? Sorry if it soudns strange but OCD is strange. If you are not familiar with religious OCD, for me it is mainly feeling that everything is sinful. And because of this, avoiding a lot of cleans things.
