Tawnyas' scrupulosity impacts every aspect of her life. How she has learned to rely on her Savior 

Thank you for sharing your story - I can relate to it a lot. My scrupulosity has been a little different in the way it presents itself, but that feeling that the Atonement works for others and not for me, that has been a huge disheartening effect of scrupulosity. And feeling like you can't go on ... I know that feeling. Right now I feel like I'm in a pit and only Christ can pull me out of it. Thank you for sharing your testimony of Christ. I need to look back on times when I felt His presence and His love to hold onto now.

I'm not LDS and never will be, but I look to the LDS dedication and commitment to their faith as something to aspire to in my walk with the Lord. Many Christians do not study scripture or pray like they should, including me, but LDS people know their scriptures and many are very active in their church. I recently found out my great, great grandparents were mormon, so maybe that's why I find it so interesting.

The best thing I heard was when President Nelson said that Perfection does not come in this life. I was so grateful for this tender mercy. We have to give ourselves grace. That is something that I find beautiful in other Christian sects. Great podcast. The Lord loves you lady

Thank you, both of you! I’m a 74 year old woman who has dealt with these issues on and off. I joined the Church 48 years ago and have sometimes served in 3-5 callings at a time while living in small branches. We have now lived in this ward for 26 years and I served in so many areas. Even in two different temples. When I was suddenly released from teaching Gospel Doctrine about 3 years, I was devastated. I loved the prep and teaching g others. Boom- gone! I can’t express the lost feeling, the fear that suddenly the Lord did not approve of me, when I had felt Him confirm His approval. Since then, I have not been called to serve, give a talk or participate. I do serve in The Family History Center and have done so since 1991, so 8!don’t see it as a calling- just fun to help others. Our two sons have left the church and I often wonder what I did to cause this. We have been faithful and strong, yet, I am very lonely in the church. So, it’s so good to listen to this podcast! Thank you!

Great work ladies. Thank you again

Tanya you already have salvation, you’ve been baptized and you believe in him. Salvation is not dependent on works. This episode is very tender. I was the mission health advisor recently and we had missionaries that struggled with religious scrupulosity and it was hard for them to manage. We had an excellent mission counselor that was so helpful for those that struggle. There were so many times we had to reassure the missionaries that they are doing better and more than we give ourselves credit for.

Another excellent podcast. I'd never heard of this but I for sure have it to a lesser degree. I put a positive spin on it in trying to serve others. ❤❤

What a beautiful story of faith and perseverance and coming to know Jesus Christ! 💛

So many parallels of your thoughts and experiences that I can relate to. Thank you for sharing your story!! God Bless you and Keep the Faith♥️

Wonderful experience! I didn't know what this word meant but when I saw it I had the impression that I should listen to it. I have in some ways done the same things with cleaning. However, I started hurting myself on accident as I was doing my job that I had to stop trying so hard to be perfect which was really hard. I also felt the same way you had when it comes to feeling Christ atonement for me. I know it works for others but I felt as I was working on myself that if I did bad even one day, thats it I was done. Working on how to help myself change with the saviors help it very hard. We are used to doing things that are wrong that it's hard to change. Thanks again for your sharing!

Scrupulosity controlled my life for 8 years. At my worst I wouldn't hug people, watch G-rated Disney movies, or listen to music that wasn't church related or instrumental. I confessed to my bishop frequently for things that weren't sins. During my third year at BYU-Idaho I hit a point where it all collapsed on me and i was forced to seek treatment. Today I work as a counselor treating Scrupulosity. Its so hard, but recovery is possible! Its so wonderful seeing people talking about it now. At the time nobody was.

Scrupulosity is a term I have never heard before. I learned much about what I've always termed 'perfectionism' from this dear sister. Wonderful interview!

Most videos on this channel, the comments are blocked. I’m super excited this one isn’t blocked. I too am/was super scrupulous. I’m excited to hear what she says. I used to make monthly wall charts with poster board (1980-90s) and made a huge list of everything the prophets said a good Molly Mormon should do. From grinding wheat, sewing clothes, not working outside the home, to temple work, genealogy, and never getting angry (I now know anger is good, it’s a red flag that our boundaries are being violated). I killed myself trying to “do all you can do” (2 Nephi 25:23) so grace would kick in.

This has to be my favorite episode so far. I relate to her more than I can even say. I shut down for years and years because I just never felt like I could be good enough to be in church. Luckily through personal revelation I'm coming back around. Thank you for sharing your story Tanya!! You are amazing!!!!

What a beautiful story of redemption and the atonement. Thank you for sharing your story really meant a lot to me. God bless you sister.

So funny, I was awful in my math classes, but in college brought my old algebra book to my apt. and read through it, skipped many levels and finished the math required for my degree in one semester, amazing how much you can learn when you're not forced to ;) Great channel, this is much more uplifting than the shock factor/annoying "LDS guy channels" that sometimes contentious and no good spirit is present, this channel is a breath of fresh air.

Thank you for sharing your experience l now we all imperfect in this life in a quest in our own way we need each other 😊

Tawnya - thank you for sharing your story and testimony! I love the sticky note idea for your journal. I love journaling and I think I'll start doing that! Love you, thank you.

Haven’t watched this yet but looking forward to it. I have Scrupilosity and Brad Wilcox’s talk His Grace is Sufficient changed my life…after I studied it for a few years and read his subsequent book on the subject The Continuous Atonement

This was awesome ❤

Beyond!

Young Joseph Smith reached deep into the moist earth and produced, gleaming in the starlight, a big ol stack of GOOOOOLDEN PLATES!!!!!

I prepared something for you girls. Can i send it to you somewhere?

Did you know that Hyrum Smith went to college prep school from 1811 to 1815 on the Dartmouth college campus? Did you know that Joseph Smith's relative was a theology professor at Dartmouth from 1775 to 1804, named John Smith? Did you know that Professor John Smith's writings are virtually identical to mormon doctrines? Did you know that Professor John Smith taught Ethan Smith who wrote the View of the Hebrews in 1823? Did you know that Ethan Smith was the pastor of Oliver Cowdery's family? Did you know that View of thet Hebrews has many similarties with the BOM? Did you know Dartmouth College was only 5 miles away from where the Smith's lived? Similarities between Dartmouth professor John Smith's writings and Mormon doctrines: 1. Greek philosophy provided his concept of the Pre-existence. 2. Atonement Covenant was made before the earth was. 3. Plan of Salvation was agreed to in the Pre-existence. 4. Father, Son and sons of men were together in the Pre-existence. 5. Spiritual death was man’s condition after the fall. 6. Son’s Church would exist in all ages after the fall. 7. Types and shadows of the covenant found in the Scriptures. 8. Oaths and covenants serve as Deity’s legal structure. 9. Light, borrowed light and the light of reason would guide. 10. Melchizedek Priesthood is co-eternal with God. 11. The Priesthood is the source of the Son’s authority. 12. Aaronic Priesthood promised to Aaron’s descendants. 13. Free Agency and the right to choose is integral to the plan. 14. Degrees of Glory is the structure of the Eternities. 15. Consecration to Christ is required for highest exaltation. 16. Revelation required to know ultimate nature of God. 17. Spirit is a simpler form of matter. 18. The prosperity cycle is the natural direction of history. 19. Millions of peopled worlds. 20. Father argues for justice and Son argues for mercy.
