there are times that my brain understands that the worrying thoughts of ocd does not count and i feel free and calm. there are times that ocd comes back stronger. and some times,i feel so afraid. it is so scary sometimes. i feel calm when I focus on Jesus but when I think if Jesus does not exist. I become so worried. and i think a compulsion has been creating that is to go for a confession in the Church Of Agios Eleutherios. but i do not want to do it if I have not made up my mind about Jesus. I feel worried to go for a confession as a compulsion without believing much in Jesus.

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.

I think it might help you to talk to a priest. There is an angle that a spiritual, Christian take on mental health can give, which secular angles can not give. I am thankful you're feeling a bit better, friend. Keep focusing on Christ, ignore the voices, and we'll continue praying for you.

I concur with Gracia Singh. I think talking to a priest will help. Tell him your concerns about confession and about your struggles. I am glad you are feeling better and I will continue to pray for you.
