[QUOTE="rupinderjit, post: 220055, member: 22142"] Sat sri akal Harman, I understand the pain you are going through, been there and still deal with it but it has decreased very much. I have kept making changes in my life, with the relationship I have with God and Guru. first of all, you have to know that there are SO MANY PEOPLE out there who are suffering from OCD no matter what form. and this is a type of mental disorder that cripples you mentally. I can only tell you what I have been doing and what I feel is right. the rest will be your choice but I am always here to talk to you. I have come to understand that God is not the man with a beard high in the sky who is constantly judging me and make me feel bad. I would definitely ask you to listen to those people who can fix your relationship with God instead of filling more fear for God inside you. I sometimes listen to Dr. Karminder Singh, [MEDIA=youtube]Bbf2OWkpMK4[/MEDIA] he is a member here as well. I do like his teachings. it helps me get the old God out of my life who never existed!! the other thing, if possible see a psychologist who specializes in OCD. I myself have not yet seen any but I sometimes see youtube videos in which they help to overcome any type of OCD I will share some links of people who have been through OCD and recovered, it helped me tremendously. you can see more of their videos. Mark freeman is amazing too, I really like his videos!! watch these videos to understand more about OCD and how to overcome it. [MEDIA=youtube]laeYq51SYA0[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]ZxI6CWWW7rI[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]bVWj_QqEs04[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]zCqA5Ua3OVA[/MEDIA] It is VERY important to know how the brain functions and this OCD is a cycle of fear going on, the more we fear the more the brain takes the thought as a danger and the brain sends more negative thoughts and this cycle keeps going on and getting worse.
