Whoever posted it was probably one of those "know it alls" OCD is a mental disorder like any other, it doesn't mean you are possessed it means you have some issue with the way your thought pattern works, i know it can be really scary and feel silly but if it feels real and horrible to you then its not stupid, i know this won't help but try and relax, you'll be okay x

All the best :hugs:

Some people call their anxiety names or characterise it. Many on the HA board used to call their's a dragon.

Some sufferers may describe their perceived inability to stop their compulsions as being beyond their control, being controlled by some unknown force, etc.

Some may think the vile intrusive thoughts must come from elsewhere, be a curse or their persecution for past actions.

These are just people's personal interpretation of them, they don't reflect scientific understanding.

Then we other overlapping issues. More devout religious groups may take more bizarre views. Since intrusive thoughts can be experienced by anyone, there can be people who have more complex mental health problems interpreting them in ways that fit to their more complex disorders.

And don't forget all the trolls out there.

How easy would it be to start something across the Internet that OCD is a disorder brought up on yourself for not believing in the hairy cornflake monster? Fake blogs can be set up so quickly, I've even seen fake forums set up to flog "guru" products.

There's a lot of BS on the net. If you believed it, you would have tons of contradicting elements all clashing with each other.

I've had OCD for about 5 years now and I'm yet to crawl around on the ceiling (I've climbed the walls many a time but not physically!) so I'm not possessed! :yahoo:

There is no such thing as demons. There is no such thing as possession. There is no such thing as magic.

People who use these kind of terms when talking about illness are usually talking metaphorically. Anyone who actually ascribes mental health to supernatural forces is someone who doesn't know what century we're living in and should be roundly, unequivocally ignored.

To put it another way, things like demonic possession were our ancestors' explanations for mental health problems when they didn't know any better. People who still believe in such things are people who ignore the fact we actually have better understanding and rational explanations for such things now, and don't need to look to superstitious idiocy to explain medical problems.

And to put it a third way - they're talking b****cks.

And sometimes misled by dubious religious indoctrination. Sinful thoughts & OCD can be problematic in religion and an additional challenge for those who believe in a faith including the mainstream.

Like I said, LJ, there is literally anything on the Internet. It doesn't matter that a load of people say it. I could show you anxiety "gurus" who peddle lies about modern therapy and refuse to accept otherwise (usually it would hurt their brand if they did :whistles:) and they have tons of "followers" websites. So much of it is fake.

Stick to what medical professionals say. Agreed science. The musings of fellow sufferers can be an interesting but they can be ignorant of science.

You'll find people talking about bringing it on themselves, fate, curses, past life crimes paid fit in this life, etc. It's what they may have come to believe but it should be taken with a pinch of salt. Falling over and breaking a leg can easily be tested to fit the same narrative.

You still find this stuff with other mental health problems. Consider the paranoid schizophrenic. Even other types of schizophrenia. Couldn't hearing voices, especially those suggesting harm & paranoia, easily be applied to possession? Think how many TV programmes and films have used these conditions this way.

My point was, if someone really wants to go down the route of "I deserve this due to being a bad person", if perhaps their religion talks about retribution against their sins, they could talk breaking their leg into being a punishment.

Who are the people saying this? A highly respected medical professional? Or some nobody blogger type who may have OCD?

Who cares what the latter says? The earth used to be flat to people like this even after someone didn't sail off the edge.

Well that's simply BS from them. Given some of the themes of intrusive thoughts we would know if OCD translated into crime statistics. Medical professionals state acting out such thoughts is rare. If it were otherwise, similar protocols would exist as they do for those with mental health conditions that include violence or abuse.

For a start, no one in the history of the world has ever known if he'll even exists. I suspect you have hit upon religious types and mental health. Views like this show they are the fire & brimstone mob.

We discuss politics on Misc. Religion is avoided, I remember seeing an old thread of regulars from before my time on here and it did get "animated" because the OP was going off about only his beliefs being true. :doh:

What I mean is that these are the more devout types since the church don't believe in possession these days either. There will be branches and smaller ones who probably do but these can be very right wing for many reasons and their views are not supported by mainstream leaders. Reading what they say about mental health won't be far off the medieval views axolotl mentioned earlier. In those experiencing certain intrusive thoughts themes I would regard some of those people as damaging.

If you really need to ask these kind of questions (which I strongly suspect you don't really) you need to talk to a responsible adult in the real world. While this forum is pretty much on the level, if you don't have critical and logical skills to answer these kind of questions yourself you shouldn't be opening yourself up to asking strangers on the Internet.

We don't know if his parents will support him, but the OP seems (sorry to be patronising) immature for his age and easily led, and I'm uneasy with his chosen council being online strangers, especially when his line of questioning is the sort of thing that could bring him into contact with cranks, charlatans and trolls. Parents, teacher, other relative, or whatever, he should be taking these concerns to a responsible real world person.

LJ, good luck with the appointment, I hope it works out for you.

You've just had your anxiety triggered.

Think about it logically. If these people suggest having OCD means you are possessed, they are bound to say you are going to hell.

It still doesn't change the fact these are quite frankly religious loon types and their opinions are nothing more than that.

Where in the bible does it mention OCD? They didn't know about mental health until more recent centuries. They also used to walk around in wooden sandals and ride donkeys! Progress moves on and so many elements of religious text have to be reinterpreted or discarded to keep up with society.

Consider gay people? What wrong with being gay? Nothing. It was an abomination to God thousands of years so of course religious texts will reflect attitudes of the time.

(Obviously you wouldn't shout anything at a Greek hoplite unless you fancied a speae in the face)

Now think how when today gay period are still fighting for equality. They can legally marry in the UK despite the CofE refusing to support it because the government decided it was the right thing to do. The same with Catholicism and Islam.

I bet you a million quid you could find many religious websites stating gay people are an abomination and will go to hell. So, who is right? Which religion is right? Where religion has been updated, did all those who came before to help her those after the "amnesty" date go to heaven?

Anyone remember father Dougal pointing that out about eating meat on a certain day?

Basically, be careful around topics like that. You're going to come across a wide range of people and some may have extreme views.

I've seen nothing but good advice for him on here, yourself included (and especially), and if he's going to be asking questions this is one of the better places to do it. But it only takes one lurker reading this to starting PMing less than mainstream religious opinion, and we don't know where else these questions are being asked.

It just makes me wary we have a minor here who seems to genuinely need to ask about the reality of these questions, and is throwing himself to the mercy of the Internet on a subject that attracts cranks. If everyone out there was like you I wouldn't be concerned. But they're not.

But I'll concede my knowledge of OCD is limited and bow out.

That's a fair point. I agree with you on that.

Hopefully it won't attract trolls or cranks but I'm mindful that NMP threads often appear high up on page 1 of Google so it's a possibility.

Hopefully he can put these questions to the therapist. Mental health knowledge and a level of neutrality would be good here.

Of course it doesn't. Like I said, they were still walking round in wooden sandals with no motor cars, trains, planes, TV, radio, pretty much nothing resembling modern medicine, etc.

The Bible reflects the time it was created in, as do other religious texts. If they didn't predict the use of steam, how would they understand psychology?

From the 14th to the 16th century in Europe, it was believed that people who experienced blasphemous, sexual, or other obsessive thoughts were possessed by the Devil.[62] Based on this reasoning, treatment involved banishing the "evil" from the "possessed" person through exorcism.[87][88] In the early 1910s, Sigmund Freud attributed obsessive–compulsive behavior to unconscious conflicts that manifest as symptoms.[87] Freud describes the clinical history of a typical case of "touching phobia" as starting in early childhood, when the person has a strong desire to touch an item. In response, the person develops an "external prohibition" against this type of touching. However, this "prohibition does not succeed in abolishing" the desire to touch; all it can do is repress the desire and "force it into the unconscious

That's from Wiki. What you read matches to a time when witches were being dunked & burnt at the stake.

You've answered your own question.

Something I need to point out is that the above from Wiki quotes Freud. What he says also reflects knowledge of the time and is incompatible with modern agreements on OCD. Basically, it's BS.

LJ, I don't really believe deep down you don't know magic and demons are incompatible with modern scientific views, and I don't believe you don't realise 2,000 year old books (and their interpretations in medieval times) contain outdated views.

You need to start kicking the logical part of your brain up a gear and try and think for yourself. The problem is depending who you ask you will get different answers to these questions, and you can't allow yourself to go down rabbit holes of panic or disturbing thoughts if you come across someone online who doesn't take the rational viewpoint that have so far been offered here.

There is no need to look to the supernatural for explanations for mental health, any more than looking to the supernatural for explanations why you may have diabetes, asthma or hay fever.

I hope this thread has made you feel better about all this, please make sure you mention these thoughts to your therapist.

Yes, good days are something to acknowledge. As are any achievements. In therapy there are tools for this such as:

http://psychologytools.com/task-planning-and-achievement-record.html
http://psychologytools.com/cbt-daily-activity-diary-e-m.html

The point is that we tend to focus on the bad ones but really need to focus more on the good ones. Positive thinking is important.

There's nothing wrong with being proud of your achievements. We have a board specifically for it. But at the same time it's also about not needing the qualification of them by others or else if you have patterns of reassurance seeking, it can keep you in them and impact on the self confidence that you are building. It's ok to get reassurance or validation from others from time to time but seeking it frequently suggests an Issue.

Guys.

Today in psychology class (which I love) possession came up and my friend showed us an article on 10 things about a possessed person

1) mood swings / changes which I kinda have

2) compulsive behaviour I have kinda

3) memory problems which I notice I have been having and I keep testing my memory as the other day my mum came in the house while I was watching a film and I spoke to me but I never remembered she came in after like 10 mins and she was like 'I spoke to you' is this bad :(

These were 3/6 and I couldn't read on. I'm trying my very best not to react and am doing as well as I can and telling myslef it's stupid but it looked a credible news and apparently loads of psychiatrists and therapists say they believe most of these patients are actually possessed!!

I can't be:( I'm trying to stay calm and do myslef proud which I haven't done in the past!! But I just wanted to get it off my chest as you are all helpful people.

Thanks guys:(

Thanks guys:( Ahh back to square one! Talk with the teacher who ran the class and run it by them, cause what ever any one says on here you will only keep seeking reassurance etc Oh BTW I too have mood swings, i too have memory loss problems but I aint possessed. So One last time you aren't possessed Ok :)_

Stop researching this subject if you haven't got the critical skills and if I'm frank basic common sense to recognise utter abject ******** when you read it.

Also I don't believe for a single second demonic possession just happened to come up coincidentally in a high school psychology lesson.

I think your teacher would quite rightly laugh his socks off at any medical professionals who openly state they believe in possession.

We've moved on since Victorian times.
