While my anxiety has eased up in the recent months and I haven't had a full blown psychotic episode in a long time, I have been having unrelenting and unshakable concerns that I might go to hell or that God might get mad at me for what to others seem like the silliest reasons. I must admit even I am embarrassed that these thoughts cause me so much stress, but that doesn't stop me from believing them
I know I'm a little old to be having such fears which is why I don't really feel comfortable telling my mom about them.
Okay so here my current "silly" fear, my little sister is a huge fan of my little pony and she ended up getting me to like it too. The show has helped at least once to distract me during a panic attack, so I thought the show was fine. Then I stumbled upon the other Christian forum and read that My little pony was satanic because it has magic. Since I read this I have been fearing that I will go to hell for watching it I haven't told my sister this yet and I'm sure if I should.
I'm beginning to fear that maybe all the television shows and books we enjoy might be bad, such as Superman, Spiderman, and Science fiction books.
I know these things sound silly, but the idea of going to hell is very scary to me it doesn't help that I feel like I'm betraying Jesus for even entertaining these thoughts.
Please help.
