Share your story if you are comfortable
i have , what is called Scrupulosity in OCD: Cognitive Distortions. due to some bad times in my life and i thought i was getting punished by god i have this ocd.. meditation helped a lot.. regular mindfulness meditation both formal and informal. formal meaning sitting at one place and informal such as while brushing teeth etc helped in great deal... read book by eckhart tolle about the power of now.. it literally freed me. i realized that ocd is not me but my brian and i have learned to deal with my brian like a father would to a little child... with compassion and discipline sourced by love. good luck... pm me if you want.
Thanks sidanepali.How to send pm?
You should also watch Dr jeffery swartz.You are not your brain.
@Urgent Notice: Get a copy of "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle and sit in your favorite place (preferably outdoors) where you can read peacefully.
One of those books where you go deeper with each reading. A spiritual masterpiece.
P.S. If you prefer the audio version, it's available at Audible.com
We must get some information from books but we must all understand that reality is not in words.words have their own place.Suppose i say somebody i love her .Even if i explain how i love they will never understand.they will understamd based on their own image if love not based on how i feel and how i think.
I love going outdoors .i forget those ocd thoughs when i meet loved ones and friends.whenever i am alone i feel cumpulsive.It may be because when i am happy different chemicals work in brain which makes me feel sane.But when i am alone different chemicals work which makes me cumpulsive.Its strange.....

Chant Mahamrityunjaya Mantra 108 times every morning or evening. OCD and all other diseases will be eradicated over a short period of time.
Om Trayambakam Yajaamahe
Shugandhim PusTivardhanam
Urvaarukamiva Bandhanaan
Mrityormukshiya Maamritaat.
(When you chant maamritaat, there is long intonation in between ..taat). Search this mantra on youtube for correct pronunciation.
Thanks but These kind of stuff leads to ocd not treat ocd ujl.May be my forefathers used to believe these kind of stuff so he got ocd in his genes and i got it...
At this point not even Brahma, Visnu or Siva can help you. भिरबाट खस्न लागेको गोरुलाई रामराम मात्र भन्न सकिन्छ.
That's a great mantra and jai bhole baba. You can listen to ekhart tolle on youtube
ekhart tolle talks mostly what he learned from J Krishnamurti. Why not read J Krishnamurti instead? Tolle does not have any originality.
J Krishnamurti was great.. but brother , i don't think he Ekhart lacks originality. He has his own experience and way to expressing the truth. Maybe it felt like that because they all talk about the same source, same infinite intelligence, call it god , being , intelligence, universe or name it anything you want. it's like water is water, you can call it aqua , pani, h20 or any thing but water's characteristic is the same. when Nepali is saying pani and american is saying water , they both are talking about same.. it' snot like one is not being original... read few books by Ekhart tolle, Deepak Chopra, Rajnish ,
Emile coue , Joseph Murphy and then started relating to what they are talking which is no different than what Gita or Bible talks... the theme is the same , they all talk about that infinite intelligence, god universe .. you chose the name... it's in your.. the moment you shut your ego and brian... you can access it..
actually when i read Rajnesh and Ekhart tolle in short time i thought he was borrowing a lot of work from Rajenesh too.. but over the time i realized they all sound same because they all are talking about the same entity.
Ekhart Tolle is not scientific. I have read his book "The Power of Now," and there are so much of mambo jumbo in that book. I just cannot take it. I recommend you all to read Bhagavad Gita translated by Swami Venkatesananda.
