    OCD and Witnessing

    I had a witnessing obsession and it was maybe my most tormenting and debilitating obsession. Like Mari17 taught me if it feels like OCD don't do it...don't do it...don't do it!! Did I mention don't do it?? and rely on God's grace to cover us from there. I think if it were truly something you...

    Can’t eat because of OCD. Please help me.

    This sounds like OCD. I'm so incredibly sorry that you're going through this. Remember God is merciful and knows our hearts and he also knows the differences between our hearts and our ocd. There are doctors and counselors who can help as well as people on this site. Understanding it for the...

    Doubt/not remembering

    Last night my son got into trouble for something that I said he did and now I'm wondering what really happened and was it as bad as I said etc...I am doubting myself and can't even remember clearly what happened. Rationally I think I would never allow him to get into trouble if he didnt deserve...

    I dont even have hope anymore

    I understand. Like my friend Mari taught me, do the opposite of what the ocd is telling you to do or making you feel you have to do and trust that IF it is God he has mercy and grace. But please find help, it's so important.

    I wish something could be done about the comments that could potentially cause so much harm. This is so upsetting

    I dont even have hope anymore

    OCD makes you feel like it's God but I think that if from God it would be more peaceful and reassuring whereas ocd is just torment and dread causing us to do things. God is full of mercy and grace and love. Please learn about your ocd and get help. ❤

    I dont even have hope anymore

    Please please please ignore the comment from fat wee Robin! It is extremely harmful when someone says things like to those of us with ocd. You do have a life and you can get better from this OCD. Its debilitating and awful at times but there is hope. Posting on here may have saved my life so...

    Fear of lying

    One of my ocd obsessions is fear of lying, not phrasing something correctly, not repeating a conversation verbatim, exaggerating in an argument etc...and the compulsion is to have to go back and say the right thing to that person. A lot of time I say "I think" "maybe" "possibly" etc just to...

    Not sure what to title it, but help

    Ive suffered with this as long as I can remember but didn't have a name for it until very recently. The worst tormenting storms were 2012/13 and currently but finding this forum and reaching out to doctors has helped me tremendously as well as focusing on the love of God and his grace both of...

    Comfort zone/ocd

    No, not at all and I've come so far. I'm handling it by remimding myself giving into a compulsion isn't what it's referring to and thinking of things that would (realistically) not ocd related be out of my comfort zone. I just keep seeing those types of quotes and I think my ocd is distorting...

    Comfort zone/ocd

    As I'm trying to fight this current obsession/flare up I keep seeing those inspirational things peoole post on social media "life doesn't begin inside your comfort zone" etc and that really sucks for me because it makes me feel like my obsession is "outside of my comfort zone" and I'd be better...

    Triggers everywhere?

    I didn't see that thread, which one is it? & yes it does feel like "signs" to the point that I just want to crawl in my closet with my eyes and ears covered. Afraid to read street signs etc...and the dreams have started in the last few days.

    Triggers everywhere?

    I had the same thought but of course it's so confusing because my obsessions are moral and biblical. But somewhere deep down I think I know God probably isn't using tv and radio to freak me out because essentially when this happens I get so fearful that I question my faith. Thank you for the...

    Triggers everywhere?

    Does anyone else have this experience when going through an obession...it seems like something pertaining to the obsession will randomly be on tv, radio, a passing conversation etc...which throws me into fear and dread of is this God or ocd? Ocd can't make the tv say certain things. But could it...
