Why does OCD make me feel like

[TotallyDependingOnJesus]

Why does OCD make me feel like everything I do is wrong. I can't do anything almost, without feeling some type of condemnation. I'm talking I can't fold my laundry and somehow OCD will come up with something I am doing wrong by doing that. I can't just sit and watch a show with my husband, because I can get that feeling then too. If I play with my kids, I constantly get this nervous feeling that I am doing something wrong. Which I am not. I've discussed this with my therapist, and I basically have to just realize I'm not doing anything wrong and sit with the uncomfortable feeling. Which isn't always easy to do, because I want to make sure that I am always making good choices. Does that make sense?

Does anybody else go through this?

I totally understand you and I'm sick of feeling like that too. I try to remind myself there's no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Still, I have my days. What did your therapist suggest?

I find your ocd to be very hard for you, i feel something like that before but my ocd is about if i touch things it makes me think that im going to become that thing, i didnt touch many things before, even the refrigerator in our house, it happened to me when i was young and i tried to force my mind to prevent it until it is already gone, tody my ocd is about being too logical in thinking and finding too many reasons to get an answer, even a simple one.

but it doesnt bother me for sometime, i just forced my mind to prevent it.

i hope you recovered soon.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!!!!!!

I too suffer from Pure OCD, that is like the mack daddy of OCD. It has caused my faith to be shaken to its core. But remain strong, take your time, relax, take it day by day, and do whatever you need to do.
