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 have try to get rid of my fear so the idea came up that I always have that thought and scared of it so it might be an obsessive way of thinking likes what you have said.

Yes, fear of having made unwanted vows is a very very common obsession, especially among Christians I think. The best way to respond is to NOT do what the OCD wants. In your case, I think that would mean not making the "vow" (which probably wasn't even a real vow in the first place) again.
