Severe Ocd (Bad Unwanted Thoughts)

You should ignore these posts, OCD is an illness and should see your gp. He will most likely prescribe you with an Ssri and also a course of CBt. The ssri alone will not help, as you need to learn the core lesson of OCD which is a blasphemous intrusive thought is just a thought and the more you worry about these thoughts the more they will appear. A specialist in London is Dr David Veale who if you want to go private can help you find the best cbt therapist. I also recommend an excellent book "a complete guide to getting well and staying well by Fred penzel". I feel your pain as I was once like you but now am better, keep your head up and good luck

repetitive persistent thoughts regarding natural urges are normal, not ocd. but if you feel that it is that bad try using bach flower remedies. google them and ocd. this has no harmful side effects and can be used in conjunction with Bani and any therapy that you might be undergoing. it will cause no interactions with drugs. I think white chestnut and crab apple would be a huge help to you. They are very cheap, and quite frankly, after suffering so much you have nothing to lose.

Firstly, the only difference between you and most people is that you admit you have impure thoughts.

Secondly, don't worry, Waheguru is all-knowing. Your admission and guilt is enough for Waheguru to forgive you, even if you have more impure thoughts in the future. As long as you don't physically molest anyone, it's fine. Just don't physically act them out, otherwise you'll be punished in this world and the next.

OCD is caused because of a chemical imbalance in the brain. And this is caused by stuff that's put in our food and medicine. So its not your fault nor because of stuff you did in previous janams. And you can't rely on doctors. They are not medicine-makers, but medicine-prescribers (no better than chemists). And whatever the pharmaceutical companies push (never safe stuff), doctors must hand-out.

So in short, enjoy your fantasies (resistance only make the thoughts come back stronger), don't physically act out the fantasies, and Waheguru will always forgive you for impure thoughts, because your brain's chemical imbalance was caused by the pharmaceutical and food production rakshasas. You'll be OK. Everything will be just fine...

I have relentless OCD. I have it in the Gurdwara even more sometimes. The thoughts are blasphemous and sexual and sometimes a mixture of both. I have been advised to go to the Gurdwara at amrtivela and do simran. I try but sometimes my OCD gets worse when I am in the Gurdwara and I feel worse off then if I hadn't had gone altogether. My mind then tells me I am being punished for my thoughts and that I am unwelcome in the Gurdwara. I have been like this for years but recently it has become worse. I have had CBT from a psychologist but it did not work and I am on SSRIs which help a bit but not completely.

I really don't know why I have to go throeavy duugh this. Maybe I slandered a saint in my past life or even this one. Some of my thoughts are towardsaints. The sufferings of such slanderers are indescribable. What hope it there for me? Is there a solution? I pray, pray and pray by doing ardas but it seems like God is not listening. This problem just does not leave me alone. I don't know what to do. I have also tried seva. Sometimes the thoughts then come while I am doing seva and it just feels so wrong doing seva while I have these thoughts so I stop it.

What am I to do?

have you tried nutritional therapies including probiotics and heavy duty  vitamin b12 b6 and b3 daily intake ? It can help with depression and intensity of internal anxiety . Another thing worth considering is Homeopathy as it does take note of ALL your mental symptoms , emotional symptoms and physical ones so will be helpful on multiple levels .

The op has issues focusing his mind. Im pretty sure its not just a case of popping a multi vitamin pill.

But "heavy duty" is NOT the way to go. Taking abnormal doses of vitamins over and above recommended allowances can have damaging severe effects on your health,

Op, please disregard this irresponsible advice. I would urge you to speak to a qualified, practising medical doctor if you suspect any deficiencies. Not a phantom googling expert who is entirely unqualified to provide such advice which could be perilous at your cost.

by heavy duty I meant beyond a  multi-vit would supply and no I am not being irresponsible you seem to forget I did ASK if he had considered nutritional therapy because I have had good results with  my patients addiing cruciferous veg and magnesium rich green leafy veg , probiotics to  rebalance  the ratio of good to bad bacteria  as there is a link to gut biome and depression/OCD .  Stressed out individuals do use up zinc, vitamin c and b vitamins at a higher rate than others and the B vitamins help support the nervous system

Im sorry, but anyone but a medical qualified person should not be providing any opinion on what another should take. Googling vitamins is not the same as a medical degree, When you say "Patients" - I take it you are a qualified doctor, registered with the GMC?

For example, zinc toxicity, caused by taking too much - or heavy duty doses - can affect the absorption of copper and iron. Nice one JKV. Op, fancy an iron deficiency?

Taking too much B6 can cause nerve damage, too much B3 can cause Jaundice and liver toxicity. Nice one. Op, fancy a bit of that too complement your OCD?

Thought not. Me neither. See a doctor.

Guest Struggling too

I fully understand your situation. I have read somewhere that Sikh Saints have advised that when you experience  a Bad Thought, think of Waheguru jee as it is GOD who has put this thought into your head. You may be reaping the fruit of what you have planted in this life or a previous life.

These thought tell us that we need to do more Simrin and especially do more Sangat at the Gurudwara. Do not fight the thought, just say thank you to GOD and picture Waheguru in your head. I picture Guru Gobind Singh Jee Maharaj on his Horse with his Talwar up in the Air, giving me his support. It brings hope and confidence to fight these bad thoughts in this age of Kul Yug

God already knows your intentions. Everything is a Gift from God, both good and bad thoughts. Do Ardas everyday to Wahaguru and ask for his assistance and compassion.

One last important thing is to give yourself permission to do Seva, Simrin and attend Sadth Sangat even when having these Bad thought. Company o the Holy is the best place to wash the diseased mind.

 

Thank You

 

Wahahguru Jee ka Khalsa Wahahguru jee ki Fateh.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
