There is no medical logic linking your previous habitual practice that would affect the medical condition of your daughter.

There are many persons that have serious thyroid issues but, fortunately, these can be treated with medication and various forms of non-invasive treatment.

I have OCD too and have learned, over time, how to effectively cope with it and you can too. This comes about by prayer, practice, and determination. Also, have suffered from depression for years, but with prayer and contemplation, usually are able to go to sleep at night with peace in my mind and joy in my heart.

My counsel is to start each day with prayer for God's will to be accomplished in your life and for the you to be delivered from the cloud of depression that is hovering over you.

I pray that you will find comfort, support, and understanding from the members of this site. This site has been a tremendous blessing for me and it can, by the grace of God, become a blessing for you and your family as well.

It's good to see that you have finally posted after all of these years.

Glad to have you onboard with us. Welcome to CC.
 
Hi Monty glad the Lord led you to post here now, welcome to CC! My suggestion 'Ephesians 4:27 states: "and do not give the devil a foothold" (NIV). In context, the verse warns believers that harboring unresolved anger or engaging in sinful behavior provides Satan with an opportunity to cause division and moral ruin in their lives'. You need to drown out all lustful thoughts by replacing them with God's word. There are 8 hr long sleep tapes with Bible verses and/or audible books of the Bible to listen to at night. Also what Tourist said is excellent. God bless & keep you and your family🙏🙌

U r blaming yourself for your daughter's condition because u feel unworthy and guilty because of your behaviour . This is your own low self esteem that is telling u that u r responsible for your daughter's health problem , it's not an actual fact . As stressful as it is to c your baby go through these things , b encouraged , many children start life with lifelong health problems and they cope very well with them , it's the parents that find it the most stressful , usually because they mistakenly blame themselves .
We all have our imperfections and weaknesses and b assured that God knows us all , better than we know ourselves . He still loves us , He still loves u . There is always a way to move forward with Him , He never shuts the door in our face .
U sounds very stressed and this is understandable in your circumstances . How does your wife cope with this situation ? Is she generally stronger than u ? Or does she very much need your support ? U and your wife might consider some counseling to help u come to terms with your daughter's problem and , some practical help might b good too . Are your daughter's grandparents involved with her ? Can they help u out with her ? U and your wife must find ways to grow and support each other so that your relationship gets stronger , so u can b a support to each other . Grow together and , grow together in the love of God . Find a church , read your Bible and pray together . Lean on your God , He wants u to and He will help u both and cheer u up when u start to c His love in your life . Don't b downhearted , God isn't going anywhere , He will b with u always ❤️ learn to recognise His love in your life .
 
Romans 7:15-20
New International Version
15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[a] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.

Romans 3:23
New International Version
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

John 3:1-17
New International Version
3 Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.”
3 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”
4 “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!”
5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”
9 “How can this be?” Nicodemus asked.
10 “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and do you not understand these things? 11 Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. 12 I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? 13 No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man. 14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Ephesians 2:8-9
New International Version
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

Acts 2:38
New International Version
38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
