What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)?"
Answer
The provided texts do not discuss Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) as a clinical condition. However, they describe behaviors and thought patterns that share similarities with some aspects of OCD, particularly in the context of mental discipline and the potential for negative consequences when certain mental faculties are overdeveloped or misapplied.
Descriptions of Over-Concentration and Mental Rigidity
»Brother D has large concentrativeness. When he gets his mind in a certain direction, it is difficult for him to place it anywhere else; he lingers tediously upon one point... The habit of concentrating the mind upon one thing, to the exclusion of other things, is a misfortune. Too great activity of one organ of the mind strengthens that organ to the enfeebling of other organs.«

Why I built EGW Vision
Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.
EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.
My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
