Dude go see a doc.

Seriously, no-one here is gonna help you properly.

Yeah, the proper advice in these situations is to go see a Doc. End of story.

^ He/She's right, it would probably be best for you to talk to a counsellor or doctor who can set some time aside to help you in the way you need. The problem doesn't seem to be Sikhi-related. But for the record, whatever happens in the future is Guru Saheb's Hukam so try not to dwell on it too much.

well im not sure about the OCD business, we covered it in pharmacology but that was like 3 years ago and this doesnt sound familar to what we did back then.

I wouldnt say your dangerous or going crazy, the fact that you know its bad to be having those thouhgts is proof of that. You say your mum and brother went through the same sort of thing, maybe you can have a chat with them and ask how they got through it?

I can only suggest that you try to keep your mind distracted by concentrating on paath or kirtan or something! If that dosnt work and talking to your familt doesnt work, i'd suggest seeing your doctor or a counsellor....honestly counselling sessions help soo much!

I hope it works out for you soon!

Singh, I think you should put your faith in Guru Sahib Ji. Start attending more kirtan programs, read more bani, and DEFINITELY do more simran. The Guru Granth Sahib Ji tells us that the cure to our grief is simran and only simran, so trust that. Also, I suggest that when you go to sleep, put some kirtan on in your room at a low volume. Play it on your laptop, MP3 player, or your ipod. Listing to kirtan/simran all night long will only be beneficial to you. Lastly, have faith that this will work. If you do all these things for the sake of just doing them, it will not work. You have to trust that through baani, your mind will start to rid of these thoughts.
