OCD will ALWAYS

Im in an OCD support forum, anyways as you know by now with me it at times comes in religious form, horrible blasphemous thoughts against God etc causing me horrid anxiety and upset.

ANYWAYS someone on the forum just told me that OCD will always attack things that we LOVE, God, our children, our health etc the ocd will always attack those things that you love dearly.


Soooo I MUST love God then because I don't WANT those thoughts in my head! And the very fact that im disturbed by it must mean that im innocent in that regard in God's eyes

Just thought I'd share.

Thanks, Chilledice.

Very true, indeed.

God knows that you are a good man, my friend.

"In the book on the old fathers (im Altvaterbuch) of the church we read that a young brother wanted to be rid of his evil thoughts. The old father said: Dear brother, you cannot prevent the birds from flying in the air over your head, but you can certainly prevent them from building a nest in your hair."

- Martin Luther

I have OCD quite bad and the weird thing is my grandfather who died many years before I died had it my dad told me he does the exact same rituals I do. I always found it was much worse after drinking and mine revolves around being beat up but it doesn't concern me to be beaten up so I don't know why I do the compulsion. Recently I've started self-exposure and response prevention and I think it helps a lot.
