Scrupulosity

[onegirlinchrist]

As a fellow “scrupe” here is one thing I know for sure: whenever the “tailspin” presents as the agonizing over details, the doubts, the obsessing over sin (real or imagined) - it is a sure sign of the evil one. Wherever confusion reigns is the sure sign of the devil."

Agreed!

and “friendofbarney”…thank you for the kind words about my rather lengthy post! Thank you for reading. Hopefully our friend who started this thread is feeling better now.

I thank you all for your advice. I intend to read over all of this thoughtfully and carefully today, and I wish you all the blessing of Christ. I have been struggling a lot with spiritual warfare, and I thank you for your support during this time.

Know that you’re not alone, and also be patient and compassionate with yourself. I think “internal” struggles of this nature are some of the hardest. You’ll pull through! Consider picking up a new hobby or social activity. Something that gets you out of the house so that your mind doesn’t have the time to wander.
