Salvation Obsession / Salvation Anxiety

Chronic fear about one's eternal fate or being "saved enough"

  • You constantly worry you’re not truly saved or chosen.

  • You overanalyze every sin to see if it disqualifies you.

  • You feel paralyzed by fear of hell or judgment.

Potential clinical implications (especially in high control settings)

  • Panic attacks may be triggered by spiritual doubt.

  • Sleep disturbances or nightmares can occur.

  • Susceptibility to coercion through fear-based theology may increase.
