• 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.

I was watching a star wars video from youtube. I was calming down and thinking less about my ocd. I was thinking about my brother and a random thought came to my mind like " if my brother tells me about this video the moment I watch it it would be worrying"

somehow, random thoughts like these are connected with my ocd worries. I paused the video, after some minutes and entered facebook. my brother just send me a photo from a star wars movie. it was not the same video I was watching but still it was star wars related.

was that a coincidence? or not? my ocd tells me stuff like


ocd: it was maybe a sign from God or from a higher power to tell you that your ocd worries may have become true and you must take them seriously.

please tell me. what do you think?
