No doubt going closer to God, is the only solution to OCD. i believe in that.
I have tried many stuffs but religious practices are very long lasting and for ever.
in 2002 i had the worst attack of OCD and schizophrenia.
In those days i became extremely religious and prayed to God all the time.
in some days i repeated God's names (I am a Muslim) more then 10,000 times a day. repeating the words 1000 to 7000 times was a normal thing for me.
I offered my prayers very regularly and kept a very close relationship with God, infect i was all alone in my house for 2 months and no one was there to help me other then God. I went out side just for offering my prayers in the Mosque.
Because of this in less then 3 months i was feeling much better i almost god rid of the fears i had i totally defeated OCD and schizophrenia in those days.
For the coming year of 2003 i was completely normal i began traveling to beautiful areas of my country and visited some great areas, just for fun and enjoyment. for 2 months in those areas i enjoyed beyond my expectations, i had many friends who were making me laugh and making me forget my past and enjoy the present.
Those 3 to 4 months were the most perfect days of my life and i had no attacks of OCD and Schezo....
But in those good days i made a huge mistake and the most stupid mistake, my friends were drug addicts and they smoked the stuffs daily. i also tried those stuffs many times, and that thing destroyed and ruined all of my hard work towards betterment. I am also allergic to nicotine(smoking) but i ignored such stuffs and traveled on the stupid and deadly highway of drugs.
for the next many years (from late 2003 till now) i am struggling very hard to alter the bad symptoms and effect of the drugs that i had taken in those days.
My friends helped me defeat OCD and Schezo for a few months... but they gave me another crazy disease.
because the effects of the drugs were very long lasting, so my stupid OCD and Schizophrenia started again. i almost messed my life by my own hands and ruined all the hard work of 2002.
and i am still suffering.
now this Ramadan(a good month for muslims) 2007 i am planing to become a religious person again, i'll start my old good things. i'll try my best to get closer to God.
and i am sure with just a few months of hard work i'll get releaf from my symptoms for ever.
And this time i'll not repeat my mistakes.
Thank you for reading this and forgive me if i have done any mistakes.
