    I've struggled with this for years and I didn't know what it was called. The sad part is, is that on the outside you can appear to be "holy" but on the inside you're chronically worrying

    I was officially diagnosed with OCD several years ago. Scrupulosity is one of my main problems. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. It flares up when I'm on vacation from work for more than a few days. Talk therapy with my psychologist helped a lot. You've got to stick with it though. The following helps me a lot:
    1. Maintain an active daily work / life routine.
    2. Try to avoid time off work.
    3. Maintain regular talk therapy sessions with your psychologist.
    4. Find other people with scrupulosity OCD to connect with (I haven't tried this yet but am planning to, as it seems like it would help).
    Thank you Dr for this awesome video ❤️❤️❤️

    On a recent podcast I spoke for almost an hour with a caller who suffers with this. She was very grateful to learn of "the word of reconciliation" found in 2 Corinthians 5:19: "To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation."
    So the sins that many are repeatedly and obsessively asking God to forgive, are not even being imputed.
    -Just something to consider.
    Grace and Peace.

    I'm not officially diagnosed but I can relate to every single word in this video... Guilt, shame, self-punishment... All of this is so familiar to me. I think my perception of morality is much more strict and idealistic than that of other people. Too many of the things that people consider "normal", seem absolutely unacceptable to me. For example, I can't stand anything related to sex. Movie sex scenes or sex-related jokes... I hate them. And I'm not sure why... I mean, I know that I'm antisexual. Beyond a shadow of a doubt. But I'm not sure if I'm also asexual or I'm just a celibate suffering from Moral Scrupulosity OCD. Maybe I'm just sexual in denial. I can't figure it out... But anyway, thanks for this great video! It was very helpful. ☺️💖

      I'm very happy that someone can relate to my feelings. It doesn't happen often. 🙏♥️🙃

      Oh... That sounds torturous. I'm sorry for you. 🥺😓 I'm not exactly religious, I prefer to call it spiritual. I also have some very strict moral values and rules, but they are not connected to any particular religion. They are my own. But I know what you mean. Sometimes staying at home by yourself can be terrifying... Our thoughts can be scary, I realize that. I know what's like to be full of self-doubt and to hate yourself. But judging by your words, I think you're feeling worse than me. And I'm sorry about that. Honestly... 😢 OCD can easily make us loathe ourselves. But I'm sure you're much more pure and innocent than 99% of the people, who are never feeling guilty about anything...although they should if you ask me. 😒🤷‍♀️
      So maybe you shouldn't be so hard on yourself...! 💖💗♥️
      Just don't listen to these thoughts. Don't try to argue with them. I've tried it so many times and it's absolutely pointless. Let them tell you whatever they want. But don't pay too much attention to them. I know it's easier said than done, but that's the only way out, I suppose. 💝

    Thank you for this video. It’s good that you’ve listed all of these compulsions; I resonate with a lot of them. However, I would like to know what is the underlying reason for these compulsions? What is the cause?

    I developed OCD in 2021. Sometimes I felt something bad will happen to me If i don't wash some dishes in the kitchen, if I go to sleep without taking a bath. The origin of this is that I'm obsessed with the sin of lazyness. In 2021 this pushed me to be busy and anxious all the week doing things, this push me to be perfectionist. Now in 2023 I have problems with anxiety, insomnia and social media adiction. I felt guilt and regret because I'm deal with unhealthy habits and scared of God judment to me. At this moment I got really well and I fight the battle of my mind with the Bible. Some books that help me are Job, Esther, the books of the prophets, The four Gospels and books written by Paul apostle.

    This was very good. I have OCD, and some of it might be scrupulosity, but I don't think that's the biggest part of my OCD. And though religious, I don't think I have real religious OCD. I don't worry about blasphemy and that sort of thing. But this does give me something to think about.

    Jesus said Himself somethings Will only go by Fasting and Prayer. Fast and pray for deliverance. You might not believe in these things But Anything Good is better then Nothing Please Just Try 🙏🏼 ❤️🌈

      Before I was properly medicated I prayed for forgiveness and salvation every single day. The only thing that changed was that prayer became a compulsion. It is PART of my OCD. I didn’t go a single minute without asking for forgiveness and salvation. It consumed my life. What helped was medication and walking away from my faith. Don’t try push prayer as a solution onto people who have religious OCD. That’s like saying the only thing that can put out a fire is gasoline.

      A lot of Christian’s told me it was demons but some said OCD. I got tired of wondering which one it’s is so I asked God himself and he told me it was OCD. I prayed and asked him if it was OCD to show me a lime green car or if it was a demon/ Satan to show me a pink car. The next day on my way to church I saw 2 lime green cars! God is good and he answered my prayer 🤍✝️🕊️

      No. He said these, meaning demons, only come out by prayer and fasting. So are you saying ocd is demon possession?

    I cannot find this info, but can a scrupulous person be controlling toward his/her loved ones, worrying about their spiritual well-being, trying to make them participate in excessive rituals or unnecessary rules, even if those loved ones are also religious?

    So with OCD, you can view your mistakes or misdeeds as ten-times worse than they really are? Let's use a TV dad as an example. In Boy Meets World, the dad occasionally lightly swats his sons on the head. As an OCD, am I writing it off as black and white?
