I understand where you're coming from as I'm also afflicted with intrusive thoughts among other things. How long have you had this affliction If I may ask? Has it gotten any better over time? You're so right about that, Jesus is the only way. It's so easy to forget what's most important when...

Thought I'd dust off this thread and try to revive it. Saw this today and it struck a cord with me on some things.

Likewise. Hope you're doing well. As for strategies I'm trying my best not to engage the thoughts in any way(sometimes it just seems impossible), disregard them and go about my day as if they weren't there. But I've had long long periods where I haven't been able to do so and I've been engulfed...

Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well. It's been awhile since I've been active here and things still haven't turned around for me, in fact it's only been getting worse. Nothing has really helped and I feel stuck. At a loss for what to do really? Like I've lost myself and have drifted so far away...

In desperate need of prayers that God would free my mind from this neverending nightmare of intrusive thoughts that only seem to get worse and worse, and for conviction of sin, a broken heart heart, eyes to hear and eyes to see again. Also have several health related issues on top of this all...

OCD is like quicksand...the more you "fight" it, the more you sink and get stuck...so the question should be, how do we get "unstuck" so to speak? Please post resources/advice that you find helpful in this thread.

Sounds a lot like my own situation and struggle. Especially the apathy and the relentless neverending bombardment of intrusive thoughts. Also the part about forcing feelings to show some form affection towards the Lord. I don't know what to tell you to be honest as I haven't been able to break...

Job 33 14-30 14 For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. 15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; 16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, 17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose...

It's never too late as long as we have the breath of life... Job 14: 7-15 7 For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease. 8 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground; 9...

Found this YouTube channel awhile ago. It has some great resources on how to deal with almost any kind of ocd related issue. Hope you find it useful. https://m.youtube.com/c/YOUHAVEOCD/featured

I guess it's a bit comforting, knowing you're not alone and all that even though it doensn't change the outcome. Yes, interestingly it we all seem to go through the same stuff. I would like to think a good strategy could be distractions or rather keep myself occupied with something, to shift my...

Well, my themes have shifted around a bit but are mostly blasphemous thoughts, unclean thoughts about people/God/Jesus, thoughts regarding conscience/repentance and feelings or the lack therof. Thoughts about Gods/Jesus existence and so on and so forth...Indeed, feels impossible most of the time. :(

You've gotten great encouragement already Job so I'm going to keep it short. Please don't give up Job, I know it's easier said than done when things just keep going downhill. I'm in the same predicament, maybe not exactly the same but something similar to what you've described. It might just all...

Haven't really gotten that far yet...I don't see him very often. Thanks for your input and the information you provided. I'll check it out and keep the search up cause right now it's worse than ever. And please do continue to share, something might stick.

Those are some interesting resources, I'll have a look through them. Thanks for sharing them. No problem. Got the idea when looking for something similar here but I couldn't find anything. I guess you could say: "Find a need, fill that need" Right?

For those in affliction.

Perhaps this can be of help to someone?

Thank you for your prayers Mayflower1! And also for the warm welcome. God bless you.
