    Guru ji kirpa, not doing bad stuff on the internet.

    But yesterday night my mind just kept saying bad stuff about the Bhagats and then when I woke up it was insulting shaheeds, it put it my in a bad mood the whole day.

    @singh11 - Bro, do you have any counselors at your university? Have you tried meeting them?

    Also, if you wish to speak to a Psychiatrist. you can keep it a secret from your parents. Don't tell your parents and meet a Psychiatrist.  

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    I think my uni does have a councilorr. 

    I probably will a psychiatrist later on if it still continues, got a lot of work from uni at the moment.

    London, England - rite?

     

    You can wash your hands twice, but don't spend too much time scrubbing your hands. If you are taking more than 2 minutes to wash your hands, that is excessive.

     

    Please tell your mother to bring Amrit from Sri Bangla Sahib jee.

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    Yep England

    Bro, you need to understand the gravity of your situation. If you keep washing your hands excessively, you can potentially develop Eczema. Daas knows someone, who has Eczema. The medication, which is prescribed for eczema by Specialists, has steroids in them and it has side effects. It can possibly start entering your blood stream, after long term use.

    Don't get freaked out, but you need to address your problem asap. OCD can potentially lead to other medical conditions.

    Bhul chuk maaf

    Before I touch a Gukta Sahib Ji, how many times should I be washing my hands ? 

    Also after going to the toilet is washing my hands twice too much ?

    @singh11 - Paaji, have you tried getting an Sri Akhand Paath Sahib/Sri Sampat Akhand Paath Sahib/Sri Sehaj Paath done for your health?

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    Nope, in my area they charge a lot of money for getting Paath done and don't really agree with charging so much. Hopefully Guru Ji blesses with the ability to do Sri Sehaj Paath when i'm older. 

    My mum is going to Bangal Sahib soon and said she will do Ardaas for me.

    @singh11 - Bro, how many symptoms (from the list below) are you facing with?

    Quote

    • Washers are afraid of contamination. They usually have cleaning or hand-washing compulsions.
    • Checkers repeatedly check things (oven turned off, door locked, etc.) that they associate with harm or danger.
    • Doubters and sinners are afraid that if everything isn’t perfect or done just right something terrible will happen, or they will be punished.
    • Counters and arrangers are obsessed with order and symmetry. They may have superstitions about certain numbers, colors, or arrangements.
    • Hoarders fear that something bad will happen if they throw anything away. They compulsively hoard things that they don’t need or use.

    Wahsers, used to be chekers, definitely doubters and sinners and maybe hoarders with my kesh.

    Okay, but Singh11 seek help quickly too, so it doesn't get worse, it's the smart thing to do. 

    Just talking to the Sangat on here has made me feel better, I don't really talk about these issues cause I don't have any practicing Sikh friends, but i feel more focused now.

    Just keep trying bro. Keep trying harder. Focus on pictures of Maharaaj. Print large pictures of Maharaaj (the ones you like) in your room and focus on them. 

    Listen to Katha/Kirtan. It might be easier for you to focus in them, rather than doing Naam Simran.

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    I do focus much better when listening to kirtan i enjoy, I might have to try getting representations of Guru Ji to try and focus.

    Have to tried to listen to bani via audio instead? Is that better? Do that instead if it helps. 

    Brother you NEED to see a doctor asap. 

     

    You need to see a specialist. 

    I used to recite Japji Sahib along with audio, but kept pausing it as i missed some parts out. Still ended up taking a long time, I do listen to some banis but I dont pay attention.

    Bro, one of the medications prescribed is Prozak, for OCD, which has side effects. That happens, if a doctor decides that your case is severe.

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    I also am severely underweight and don't eat properly. I'm thinking this is making me unfit to read bania, i don't think i need to see a doctor, as soon as i can do path properly i think it will get conquered.

    CBT is good. 

     

    Might be time to get re-assessed bro. 

    I did watch some CBT videos, but when I get bad thoughts related to Guru Ji or stuff against Gurmat I usually feel down because its building up bad karma, especially when my head says something bad about sants. 

  11. 1 minute ago, paapiman said:

    Bro, you need to listen to your body. 

    Try this:

    Take the Ayurvedic medication as mentioned above and do the Jaaps. Try it for like 2-3 months. If your situation does not improve, then go the Psyhiatrist.

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    Will try the Jaaps first

    Look I'm suspicious of pharma too, but it might be a good idea to get officially diagnosed. It might help later at work. 

     

    If you don't mind me asking, does the condition affect your ability to do your coursework/exams? 

    At first it did, but I have to say OCD is the main reason that brought me to Guru Ji. After that Guru Ji done kirpa and sorted it came under some control.

    Dear OP,

    It is very important that you make an appointment with your family physician. He will set you up with a Psychiatrist, They are the ones to make the diagnosis. Please, do not make the diagnosis on your own. OCD not only affects your Sikhi , it can also affect your daily life.  Don't worry they wont start you on pills right away. They can guide you to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy & Meditation Sessions. This will also help with mind control. Also, does your family know about it. OCD is very real, please do not delay a doctors visit.

    You can also look up CBT on your own, if you like.  There are many techniques that will help you. But please do see a psychiatrist.

     

    I had anxiety before my OCD, and saw a doctor for some period of time. But when she suggested referring me, my parents said no.

    At some stage you might want to see a doctor about it.

     

    Have you been officially diagnosed by a doctor btw? 

    No, but previously my condition was really bad was into superstitions and everything. Like I used to do everything a certain number of times otherwise i felt something bad will happen. And I used to wash my hands for more than 5 minutes. Someone suggest I had Pure-O, which is the exact some thoughts I get that people online have describe/written about.

    Bro, the most important and critical thing - Have you gone to a Doctor, regarding OCD? If so, what did he /she say?

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    Nope I feel the doctor won't understand my problem, as my OCD is mainly impacting my Sikhi mainly.

    Bro, go and take Amrit asap. Talk to Panj Pyaray about your OCD medical problem. They might do an Ardaas for you. The Ardaas of Panj Pyaray is very strong, as compared to a regular Ardaas.

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    I want to take Amrit, but currently I don't think is the best time with all my work load from uni and my kaam problem. I finish uni by June, so hopefully I should be preparing my self to take it.

    Thank you for the Jaap, but I can't read Gurmukhi is that Ang 818 of Guru Mahraj. Also thank you for replying back

  16. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

    I need guidance, recently I feel down. I'm having problems with balancing Sikhi and normal daily tasks. 

    Currently I am in my last year at university and have a lot of work, I also have OCD/Pure-O which means I get messed up thoughts and sometimes they really do get to me. I have quite a few problems so will try and shorten them down. 

    • I find it hard to do any path, even the shortest bania will take me a long time to do and whenever I do complete the bani instead of feeling at peace I get headaches. I would say it takes me 40 minutes to do Japji Sahib and 10 minutes to do Kirtan Sohila. It really annoys me that I can't do it my bania quicker, I have been doing this for two years and don't think I can carry on this the rest of my life.  I just keep stopping and repeating some tuks over and over again because I feel I have pronounced it wrong and feel like Guru Ji is going to tell me off. 
    •  Because of my OCD I find it hard to make a decision, I will spend a lot of time considering whether what i'm going to do is the best choice for my Sikhi. I just end up thinking about it all the time and just feel down and exhausted after. 
    • I can't control my kaam, every week I just end up going on the internet and doing bad stuff. After I feel sick and I feel I don't deserve to be a Sikh. 
    • I get some many bad thoughts, but Guru Ji kirpa I've learnt to live with them, but it kills me inside and makes me worried whenever I get a bad thought about Guru Ji, a mahapurkh or a Shaheed. When I sit down in the sangat it is more hard, my mind just says so many bad stuff about people. Also because of my OCD my mind is messed up, for example sometimes when looking up and where I look happens to be a girl, i automatically think I've done something bad. 
    • The time i do bania, are all over the place. I don't wake up at amrit vela and my evening path I sometimes do at 10/11pm. When I go uni sometimes I would reach home round 6/7 but I'm to tired and hungry to straight away to do my Rehras Sahib Ji, so i end up doing it late, sleep late and wake up late. I listen Rehras sahib Ji when travelling from back to uni but I feel guilty, and end up doing it later at home. 
    • Because of my OCD, I wash my hands alot and my skin gets bad after a few days. I also live in family which drinks and has meat, so I feel like stuff is contaminated.  

    Currently i am not Amritdari and to be honest I hardly do any simran. 

    My morning routine is: 

    When I go uni  I start path at 8

    When i don't go uni start path about 11/12

    • Japji Sahib
    • Jaap Sahib (listen and follow along as much as I can) 
    • Tav prasad savaiye
    • Chaupai Sahib (listen and recite along) 
       
    • Anand Sahib (listen but when doing worldly things if at home or on the train) 
    • Hukamnama (if i have uni i will read it in the night) 

    Evening Routine: 

    • Rehras Sahib Ji

    Night: 

    • Kirtan Sohila
    • Hukamnama Katha 
    • Simran (10 minutes if lucky) 

     

    I feel all over the place at the moment, and not even studying much because I can't find the right balance. 

    Please forgive me if i said anything wrong, offensive or wasted your time. 

    Sat Sri Akaal
