• 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.

Hi guys,

My first thoughts started when I was 14 with a fear of being a lesbian, that didn't last too long. Then I had this thought 'I want to be possessed' and I want to become a satanist' and writing that now I laugh because it sounds so dumb. A few weeks ago though I asked God to reveal himself to me and was seeking him. Then this thought popped into my mind 'how did God come into existence'. Then it escalated to 'why can't I have the knowledge of God' and then 'I want to be God'. When I have a moment of clarity I know that God created me and I'm so thankful and I know that Jesus died for me. When I'm in the middle of all these thoughts and doubts it's so hard to distinguish what I actually believe. I have had moments where I ask for forgiveness and ask God to humble me and I feel so at peace and cry and then as soon as I wake up the next day the thoughts start again :(. Everytime I read the bible or listen to Worksop I get these thoughts. I'm so scared that I actually think these thoughts. Ive even had thoughts 'I don't want to go to heaven'. Has anyone every experiences ones like them. Ocd is so scary.
