Characterizing the Multidimensional Relationship Between Spirituality and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Thematic Analysis To improve our understanding of the complex relationship between religiosity and OCD, we performed a qualitative analysis of messages (n=225) referencing religion in r/OCD, a public online peer support forum for people with OCD with over 250,000 users. Our results indicate that attitude towards God (i.e. optimistic, fearful, mixed) may represent a hidden variable that may help explain heterogeneity in OCD outcomes among religious individuals, with optimistic attitudes potentially contributing to compulsion resistance.
