• 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.

OCD & Emotional Impulses?

Hi,

Does anyone who have OCD on here deal with sudden emotional impulses to curse at God? I know that it happens with words and phrases in terms of intrusive thoughts, but does anyone also experience it in the form of impulses in an emotional sense?

Does anyone know if quick emotional impulses to curse God or of cursing at God are documented as part of OCD clinically (as in not just by own personal experience with OCD, but recognized by the general medical establishment consensus as a feature of OCD also).

Thanks.

It is actually documented part of OCD. Martin Luther reported he had thoughts of cursing God and of the devil's butt. OCD is caused by any fear, thus you're afraid of cursing God, which is why you focus on it. God understands you don't mean it (even if the OCD lies and tells you He doesn't).
