well I know you know all this...but, as you know, if you really felt these things, it would NOT bother you to have these thoughts and feelings...the fact that they bother you, shows, you DO care about God! and...you mentioned that you are not on Lexapro now, it's possible that by ending it...

Thank you dabro....yes, the hard part is not only the PTSD, but then all the people we "think" are there for us...are NOT! and then...that is just more trauma! im sorry for what you went through, I've heard others talk about that too....I think that's horrible, and people are so very unaware...

a lot of times, even with those who do not have ocd, feelings just don't match truth....even in loving marriages, spouses won't always "feel" love, but they continue to love, if that makes sense at all?....but love isn't only a feeling, it is so much more...so take heart, the fact that you are...

o my..i can totally hear you on the "finding something to obsess about in your new activit"...yup! at first...it's ok, I think or have found, because it's "new"....but once you do it a few times, you can see things in the activity or suddenly think "o...bla...bla" whatever the thought was...and...

Thank you JesusThisWay!

So me and my husband are at the beginning of a divorce, by his request and my fighting it for years....until finally I felt that God told me, to let go and stop fighting.... last night, we got into a discussion that I should NOT have allowed and I know that..i see where I went wrong. however...

sarah - you are such an encouragement...thank you so very much :)

kodadog1024 - o thank you! one of the hardest things for me has been...."ok, so people say to ignore these thoughts, however, can I truly ignore even these thoughts and know that they will not happen"....this has tormented me! your reassurance helps, however, I do know that with OCD we aren't...

again..thank you everyone! im so encouraged to have others who care :) I will say, due to chronic (other) illness, not OCD, my energy tends to be low, so in my responses I don't mean to leave anyone out, or not acknowledge anyone. hopefully, I can say that I really do appreciate everyone's...

O my gosh everyone..thank you so much for all the responses! I hesitated to post here because I thought..."well, eh, no one will respond" but I got desperate and posted....and I am so very happily surprised, thank you! Im just so amazed by the support here, I have hunted for help for so long...
