"I Blame My Church for My Scrupulosity OCD"

from Simply Scrupulosity · host Abbie Tabbilos

Scrupulosity Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is already complicated enough before you consider that it isn't much of a stretch for the OCD sufferer to develop complicated feelings towards their faith.In my journey with Scrupulosity OCD, I've asked myself questions like:- If I wasn't raised in a religious household, would I still have developed OCD?- Is it worth it to remain an active member of my religion?- Is my religion making my OCD worse?It's painful to consider the idea that maybe I wouldn't have suffered so much if I was not a religious person. Plus, these questions have led me to compulsively avoid religion, and then fall into a hole of doubt and questioning everything about my faith. How do you go about processing this? In this episode, we'll talk about: - People who were raised in Athiest households have still developed Scrupulosity OCD- Even though religion isn't to blame for the existence of Scrupulosity OCD, that doesn't mean it isn't okay to develop complicated feelings about your faith- The mourning involved in healing from Scrupulosity OCD- Three ways I am working through these feelingsFor more information, check out this blog post: https://www.abbietabbilos.com/post/i-blame-my-church-for-my-scrupulosity-ocdConnect with me:Website: https://www.abbietabbilos.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/abstabbs/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@abstabbsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/tothemoonandbacknomatterwhatYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AbbieTabbilosLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abbie-tabbilos-55ab9422aDownload my free 3-step guide, "Recovering from Scrupulosity OCD: A Crash Course":  https://www.abbietabbilos.com/newsletter-free-resource-landing-pageHeadshot photo credit: Mark Daeson Tabbilos from Your Filipino Photographer.
