Scared

[babegirl111]

Hey everyone,

Have any of you been scared that through some of your ocd spikes that you have said or uttered something blasphemous on accident, but in reality you really don't know what you said, or you just get that overwelming feeling that you said something blasphemous and now you are condemned. I don't know but sometimes i think by mumbleing, and I am in constant fear that I said something bad that was in my mind on accident and I get really scared. Do any of you guys have this problem??

Hi,

All of it is ocd. It doesn't matter what the thoughts are. Rest assured that God knows you don't mean any of them.

Ignore it all as much as possible, and go on with your day. It's very hard, but it works. I've been right where you are, dear child of God.

Thank you for your kind words. God has blessed me richly in my recovery of ocd. But I had suffered in torment for 8yrs before even being diagnosed properly. I have seen psych floors 9 times in my life.

Yes, my spirits are up, but I have my down moments too (just not because of religious ocd, praise the Lord).

I still take my medication every day. I have for 15yrs. It's something I have accepted, and am grateful to God that it's available.

Give your meds some time to work, and learn the therapy. Both are God's gifts to those of us afflicted with this disorder.

God bless you, too!

I am happy to hear that seajoy, and thanks orangecruch98 for your prayer. I spend so many hours just on my OCD trying to block out thoughts and being so afraid to speak anything from my mouth! It is just so depressing, i just always feel so sad and most people don't understand why. In life I know we are going to go through things and experience things that might scare the wits out of us but we know that through CHRIST JESUS ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! I AM READY FOR MY MIRACLE!

I know how you feel.I myself just wanted a miracle.Just one big moment when all the thoughts go away.

Thats not what was supposed to happen for me.God has been helping me in an extraordinary way for the past 5 months and im not 100% healed yet.SO just know that on the road to getting healed from OCD there will be ups and downs but you will get better along the way.

Praying for you Babegirl,
Wonderful advice has been offered to you already. I agree with all of it. Someday you will get to the point where you will be able to tell these moods and feelings just where to get off. Remember that if it weren't for the extreme anxiety response going in your brain you would have no problem shrugging these things off. OCD is a real biological disorder and though it's extremely distressing it's nothing to feel shame about. You didn't choose it but you can choose to do those things which will help you in your recovery.
Welcome to the forum. Hope to hear from you again about your progress.

You have obviously already received excellent advice here. Let me just echo that! I'm new to Christian.forums. So much of what you guys are sharing about feeling condemned over thoughts and possible thoughts, accidentally blaspheming the Holy Spirit etc. I experienced many years ago. I still have my own OCD struggles but not about thiskind of thing anymore. The key to dealing with this type of OCD thought is to recognize that it has absolutely NO spiritual significance.
As hard as it is, just let it go. When you begin to attach no value to the thought and think of it as mind clutter, the less often these thoughts will torment you. It's like if someone says don't think of green monkeys, whatever you do. Of course, green monkeys will be all over your thoughts!

Truly, trust me on this as someone who has walked through it, it has NO spritual significance. You are not going to ACCIDENTALLY blaspheming the Holy Spirit. If you did, by your definition, then it's NOT the unpardonable sin that Jesus spoke about. The whole thing is OCD! It IS! Believe me, professional counselors will even tell you that this is a common theme among Christians with OCD.

I still of course had that bad feeling in my mind! That I have said something and I start to feel condemned. Even through good days it always comes back to me. Like I have called the Holy Spirit something bad on accident because I am trying to contradict thoughts in my head by speaking the truth and sometimes I feel that I might have spoke the thought on accident. I don't know if that unpardonable!
