Hello

[madison1101]

Hi all, read this thread with great interest, some very encouraging posts here!!

I have several diagnoses too--BPD, depression, BDD (Body Dysmorphic Disorder), OCD and in the past I have been diagnosed bipolar also. Who knows--I'm a psychic trainwreck lol!

It's probably my OCD talking here (with some of the BPD thrown in)--but I have always had great difficulty in believing that I was "saved"--just didn't feel "good enough" I guess.

Is anyone else troubled by this thought? (Maybe it belongs more on the OCD or depression thread??)

Anyway--glad to see all of you here and I'd love to chat with you!!

I don't have OCD, I do have Eating Disorder NOS, and Major Depression though. I had in the past felt that I was not saved, because I was not good enough. I praise the Lord that a dear friend kept pointing me to scriptures and kept telling me to cling to TRUTH, which is in God's Word.

I also learned that I cannot base my salvation on my feelings. As a former BPD, I always did things based on my feelings. That usually got me into trouble. I must, absolutely MUST, make my decisions based on the facts, the TRUTH, which is in the Bible. Studying that and praying helped me overcome my doubts.
