• 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.

Hello guys, I talked to my mom about my OCD struggles which involves blasphemous thoughts. I told her there is an unforgivable sin and it’s saying bad things against the Holy Spirit.

She is an unbeliever who does not believe there is a God, she doesn’t know the Holy Spirit is good and God and she is very ignorant. Later on she said the Holy Spirit has what I have ( OCD ). I am so scared she committed the unforgivable sin. Is this unforgivable? I regret telling her. Please.
Hi niclas

I care deeply for the situation you’re in,I too have been in your shoes MANY MANY MANY times in my life.And I’d like to tell you something my friends here at CF have told me,If you worry you have committed the unpardonable sin,it is good to know you haven’t because you wouldn’t be worried if you did.
With OCD you will experience MANY thoughts like this,and it is hurtful.
But rest assured,some of the greatest Christian’s in history have had OCD such as Martin Luther,Søren Kierkegaard,John locke,and John Bunyan. I too,a devout Christian,have it and let me tell you that the good lord will sustain you,as I’ve endured the intrusive thoughts I’ve built up a Holy shield to them,God has allowed me to endure them to later ignore them and overcome them.

If you ever need help,Mari,MMXX,and I would be willing to help anytime you need it.

take care buddy!

Welcome to CF. The unforgivable sin is dying in unbelief. Mom has a chance ! And you have a condition, God knows your heart. Be in peace my friend!
Blessings.

well, you know some says the unforgivable sin is when you see the work of the Holy Spirit and you deliberately say it is the work of the devil. Just saying.

but yes, I think the OT might need to seek some professional help.

I hear that as well however, after doing some research it is primarily claimed in fringe circles that are hyper Charismatic.
Blessings
