Is Worry a Sin? How People With Scrupulosity OCD Should View It
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever wondered if worry was a sin? If you have, it's probably because a lot of people genuinely think it is. In fact, they often cite increased faith and/or prayer as the perfect antidotes to worry.
However, for people with Scrupulosity/Religious Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), believing that worry is sinful can be incredibly harmful, not only because OCD sufferers don't have control over which worries come into their minds, but also because it encourages believers to monitor their thoughts for sinful content.
In this podcast episode, we talk about the importance of moving away from believing that worry is a sin and why that it is important. We also discuss:
- Why many people believe worrying is sinful
- The healthiest way folks with Scrupulosity OCD can view worrying
- The importance of nuance in religious relationships
