  A religion or OCPD?

  by Xanthippe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i came across this paragraph about the causes of ocpd and it occurred to me that jws as a religion do reward ocpd traits.

  they insist you adhere to rules and behaviours to the impairment of social and family activities.

  perfectionism, strict moral code, lack of generosity.. so does this religion cause this personality disorder or does it recruit people who suffer from it?.

  I am just coming out of a stretch of depression. Not only that, I have had a a bout of irrational fear of death. These symptoms are a product of my upbringing in this cult. You can escape this cult. However, the mental torture can stay with you for a long time. I hope one day I can get over this. Or at least alleviate these feelings to an extent that I can live a normal life.

  So yes, by my own experience, I can truly say that such mental illnesses as OCD are a product of being in a high control cult.

  "putting on the new personality." By these words used by the watchtower for someone who falls in line with their teachings. Yes I would say it causes one to have issues with OCD, or any mental illness for that matter. I would even argue that there is a certain percentage that may suffer from a spectrum schizoid personality disorder too.

  ) e good make love dey make the two of dem think about how the other person dey feel and wetin e need.

  3:7) e no good make dem force each other but make their body first move dem to do am.

  The Watchtower is only following in a growing trend really. Religion is no longer a priority in our busy lives.

  I suppose psychologically speaking, this could fall into the OCD category. Therefore concluding, we may all have an addictive personality to one extent or another.

  I note the other lie being told about the downning of MH17 is also front page news.

  The very reason the whole child abuse enquiry is in turmoil, is because it is engineered to be this way. This enquiry WILL expose many powerful people, this cannot happen. The powers that be will do anything and everything to hide the fact that the those who have held/holding high profile positions are not exposed.
