I will pray for you. I can understand having horrible, incomprehensible thoughts popping into your head. It's happened to me; I guess it happens to all of us. I can also understand feeling lost, hopeless.

God bless you.
In Christ,
Joel ><>.
2 Chronicles 7:14.

It happend to you? How did you handle it? Mainly, what is your story, if you want to tell us.

And to the TS, how are you doing?

Philippians 4:8,9

[8] Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
[9] Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.


Hello, I'm new to the boards. Really am just at a loss with things and miserable because I don't understand and It isn't easy to talk about either. I have I guess what you call Pure OCD or harm OCD and I can't for the life of me understand why I have to deal and go through this everyday all the time...I'm misserable with it and I don't understand, I guess I'm just hoping I could come here and someone could help me and give me some peace about all this and reassure me that everything will be ok and get better? I'm at a loss and feel hopeless because I feel like the thoughts are coming from me since they can be so terrible and in my mind. :-( I don't know what to do, I am a born again christian and love Jesus but I feel lost, help :-(


I suffer from Pure OCD and invasive thoughts also. I have since I was 18 and I'm 43 now. I take medicine for it (Luvox) but for years I was tortured by it and it still bothers me greatly at times. So I know exactly what you are going through. My advice to you is, of course read your bible and pray, but talk to your doctor about your invasive thoughts and also find something to keep you mind preoccupied. Like puzzles or strategy computers games. Avoiding the TV helps too because the images can stir up the thoughts. I'm not saying avoid it all but when your mind is in the depressed state it is in (OCD is a form of depression) it will fixate on to the real negative images and stories on TV. Going for a walk in the woods or a ride in the country helps also.

God bless.

Feelings come and feelings go,
and feelings are deceiving;
My hope is in the word of God,
naught else is worth believing.
-Martin Luther Edited by Wilchbla
