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.

Hi Caty,
Are you sure you're not confusing the Lord with some other person in your life, like a father maybe. And instead of letting the Lord do the judging you're obviously judging and punishing yourself, thinking you're God. Bad idea!
You didn't create this universe or yourself, Stop playing God. You certainly don't want to be a friend to the one who has decided "to exalt his throne above the stars of God," "be as the Most High," and "sit in the place of authority."
Best Blessings,
"Arph"

I might be, dont have a dad in the picture.
Im not meaning to play God---I just want to know if I can be forgiven for these terrible thoughts that I might have and might not have meant or that I might have verbalized.
It's like this stuff starts to sink in---& then I think about the scrpiture about the unforgiveable sin and then im back to square one.

Keep reading the thread.
i still think there might be a chance that ive committed this sin (some websites that i read say that i have)
did you read about me telling God one time in a prayer that even if i have committed this sin to please not let me ever stop wanting Him or turn against Him (maybe he granted me that wish & that scares me cause that could very well mean im unforgivable.)
Hon, if He has cast you aside, He wouldn't be granting your "wishes."
If you had honestly committed that sin, you wouldn't care. It wouldn't bother you in the least.
okay. but thats why i fear i will never know until i die. cause its not that i dont want to believe you but to me that one scripture cancels out every other scripture about forgiveness.
Can i ask---I dont now if i have asked you all already--but why do you say that if you are worrried you haven't???
In my opinion, a person who has committed blasphemy of the Holy Spirit has hardened their heart toward God and doesn't love Him. If you're still wanting Him and desiring Him, then you haven't committed that sin.
I promise, Im not meaning to sound smart or disrespectful or anything, but whenever i hear people say, "thats just my opinion." its just like if someone says to me, I don't think you have done this. Thanks for trying to help, but w/my ocd it takes rock solid evidence & I'll never be able to get that.
It's okay. You don't sound disrespectful.
You can be free from OCD. God heals. I'll be praying for you. The offer to chat via PM is always open.
Caty,
I'm praying for you.
God bless.
i have a question for the wof believers. okay i read somewhere that you all believe the Bible completely literally. if that so, how do you not get that just saying something or thinking something is not the unforgiveable sin??
