I am not sure if it is OCD because usually there is a corresponding compulsion like ("I think I just ran over something, I should go back and check."

I know that after our miscarriage, I did have some PTSD type symptoms, like waking in the middle of the night with the physical feeling of losing Jeremiah again. But, that was a reliving of something traumatic that I experienced, so it is Meg @ True, Good and Beautifulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10507070127764766394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7203193627160349636.post-50722430673076727962014-03-05T15:36:45.130-07:002014-03-05T15:36:45.130-07:00Oh my dear I am so sorry you are going through thi...Oh my dear I am so sorry you are going through this! I second what was said above about ppd or OCD, I would also go to confession and seek a spiritual director to help guide your prayer life during this tough time. I think approaching this as thinking about healing the whole person is key. Yes, prayer is important but God works with our nature and the enemy knows this so he will try and get to usKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13670331855264293102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7203193627160349636.post-68808758776162245142014-03-05T11:30:57.568-07:002014-03-05T11:30:57.568-07:00Oh K, I am so sorry.

I struggled severely with clinical OCD and horrible scrupulosity for a couple of years before I conceived Elizabeth and although I didn't have these specific visions that you are describing, there was a lot of other things that Joy Beyond the Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09418519519090894030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7203193627160349636.post-40429622531071230092014-03-05T10:44:11.083-07:002014-03-05T10:44:11.083-07:00Honestly praying for you, and feeling some solidar...Honestly praying for you, and feeling some solidarity, too, because this sounds a lot like some PPD/PTSD. The combo of grief from your loss of your precious baby coupled with the hormonal turmoil of giving birth so recently makes it really likely you could be struggling with PPD. You're a great mother, and you're right to combat the evil that is plaguing you with prayer. Talking to a Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07923751596148085363noreply@blogger.com
