The Enough Effect

Is It the Spirit or OCD?

Season 1 Episode 17

If you've been diagnosed with Scrupulosity (Religious) Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), chances are you have been confused about whether you received revelation from God or if it was just your OCD talking.

I understand that answering this question can be incredibly complicated, especially since many people eventually realize that some of their most treasured spiritual experiences were simply the reduction in anxiety that comes from completing the OCD cycle.

In this episode, we cover everything you need to know about how to discern God's voice when you have OCD, including:

  • Key adjectives that describe both the Spirit and OCD
  • How to avoid getting trapped in the OCD cycle when you're trying to figure out what is OCD and what isn't
  • Real-life examples that illustrate how to do so
