Does it cause you to self hatred and bitterness toward yourself?
I know it has with me in the past.
Curious if anyone has this problem?

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.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

you know i think so ..i really do .. i mean i dont believe anger causes ocd at all it triggers it ..but it can result in self loathing for lots of reasons for example there is afalse sense of guilt that comes with it ..i remember having harm thoughts about my nephew and then just carryiong on with him like everything was ok ..and thats really unsettling because when the person that you would never harm physically is standing here and u suddenly haved an image of huirting them thats so disturbing ''
also the what if questions sometimes i think stem from this like if i could trust enough then i could Know that he would save me ..''
so because i cant trust enough that could very well lead to anger against ones self
very good thread mate

I dont know that I always understand when I am angry or what anger is because for so long I dismissed any feelings of being 'upset'. however, I think my OCPD and OCD traits make me have really high expectations of self and I get frustrated with myself (and others) very quickly. and now that I am learning about this disorder in myself and learning to understand more emotions, I get angry at myself for being frustrated, as if that isn't a cycle of insanity and obsession!! I keep trying to work on 'let go and let God in these situations.

Hey Johnnie,
You just can't know this for sure about any of us "you all have strongholds in your life" - unless you are omnicient which I'm quite sure you are not. (Neither is Satan by the way.)
I know you're trying to help. I don't at all doubt that and I'm thankful that you care enough to try. But it is clear to me that you have very little education about the disorder of OCD. Otherwise you wouldn't say such a thing.

I used to get mad at myself for not being able to shrug off the fear and the obsessing. I thought it meant I was a real weak person. I don't feel this way anymore because I know why the fear is there. I know my brain is overeacting by sending me all those false signals. I do get mad at myself when I'm not doing the things that I know I should in order to manage my disorder to the best of my ability. Sometimes I get lazy about those things and that's not a good idea. So I pray for God to help me to be self disciplined to do those things that I know I should.

Yes I can say for myself - YES - I have felt a hatred towards myself and I feel that sometimes God is going to get mad at me for being that way but it makes me get emotional and sometimes the tears are just too much at times. I sometimes want to take a bat and just beat the wall in. I can't take it anymore because I just started a "New Relationship" with my Nephews and I want to be strong "Emotionally" for them because I want to be a positive "Influence" in their life. I have someone telling me that I have to PUT FORTH the effort to do better when it comes to the Emotional issues (although they don't know what I'm struggling with is Emotional but I sort of just talk around the issue) and that's fine but I'm just downright afraid to let go of the OCD habits/Rituals because I'm afraid if do then something BIG is going to happen in that area and I'm going to really physically mess up my life. It's like if I don't "Monitor" the area then something is going to be out of place...(You would have to read my first post to understand what I'm struggling with)
Sorry to hijack the post with more than what I should have said.
