almost a year ago, I was returning to my hometown and was packaging my stuff. due to some other ocd issues, not relared to religion were troubling me but not so much. I love toasts and for various reasons I wanted to take my toaster with me. we already had one in hometown but i used not using it. i decided that it is maybe time to use it. my luggage was ready almost and i needed to decide if i take mine toaster or not and probably needed to hurry because I had a plane to catch. i was happy and carefree in a dilemma if i should take my toaster or not. i was like should i take it or not? shouls i take it or not? suddenly, while i was carefree some thoughts and words happened in my head without my will like " promise to take it with you" ocd said. well, not exactlt like that. but i am using as ocd dialogue due to worrues. i some how was joking about it for a second. like being carefree and singing whispering some lyrics. well, in the same way some thoughts without my will happened in my head. for 1 second. and i freaked. i was like. [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]! did I maybe made some thoughts without my will about making a promise to take the toaster with me? does this mean every time i travel i will have to carry it with me? i was just carefree and some thoughts popped in my head. i worry because i think it was a time that i have not asked God protection from promises etc.

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.

Why don't you just see a psychiatrist?I had a relative with OCD who kept on praying yet his OCD did not go away cause he needed medicine. Yet he didn't blame God in the end because it is a physical problem involving the brain and he knows God won't simply perform a miracle for him when medicine is available.
