A.) Say your fear out loud. I am afraid that if there is dirt in my Bible that....then list your fear. This will help your other senses to pick up on this fear and they the other parts of the brain it triggers will question this belief. Challenge your belief. Ask yourself, what will happen if I just leave the dirt there. Sometimes I would do something to spite OCD. So you could actually put a few more specks of dirt on the Bible. Scrupulosity is the OCD that has to do with religion. God made dirt, we are made out of dirt, if there are some specks on the Bible, that's fine. God does not care. He certainly isn't going to punish you for allowing some dirt on the Bible, you just have the wrong belief system which is driven by fear. God does not want you to be afraid of Him, when the Bible says fear Him, it means to respect Him according to the Bible and there is no where where it says you can't get dirt on the Bible. Sure, you can wipe off the Bible, but if there is some remaining dirt, that's fine. The Lord is against people wasting their time doing useless things, and wiping microscopic particles off your Bible is not God's will for you, period. I know you can do it, I believe in you and You are a child of God's. He loves you and it is His will for you to stop doing this, so will you obey Him?

Question below
Q.) I just turned 21 last week. I am going away to a residential school, despite my severe OCD. The thought is that I need to be out of the house (and away from my mother\\\'s help) in order to get better (as well as to become more independent) -- but how will I cope with the stress of my OCD in this new and stressful living environment? What should I ask to be provided to me in terms of services (therapy) and supports to help me have a chance of being successful in this new environment/school?
A.) It's a good decision you are making by going away. People that stay at home and feed their OCD have a harder time getting over it. Here you are forcing yourself too and that is sometimes what people have to do. I am proud of you for having such courage. Yes, let faculty and staff know so that you diminish some of the pressure that you may feel. If they have a counselor, it probably won't hurt to go, but tell them that you don't want to keep reminding yourself of OCD, but you want to forget about it and that you don't need to deal with it because it's just made up. In fact, you are dealing with it by learning how to ignore this paper tiger ( this made up monster) I believe in you and you can do it! Remember never to give up, one of the keys to success is to "try until you are successful."

Question below
Q.) My maze of \\\"rules\\\" has been absolutely rigid, sometimes morphs into new ones, for 30 years. They are so wired into me, and I saw them as necessary to survive (I think some over-valued ideation is present, but I still see the irrationality in my mental construct.) Therapists and meds galore didn\\\'t help,am longtime member of ocd foundation, and exposure-response prevention always seemed brutal(tried it). My fears are so intense, I fall into persistent hysteria and depression if something happens against my controlled structure. How can I break from this stranglehold? I understand your approach, but I have such an entrenched case. I\\\'ve recently tried confronting some things in the top layer with some success, but the hard-core issues seem impenetrable. (Also, I want to get all you have to offer-- I like your simple, direct approach. I\\\'ve read about Acceptance Commitment Therapy,too, a program that seems compatible with your methods.) My 27-year relationship has crumbled because of this, and I\\\'m at a pivotal crossroads
A.) I can definitely appreciate your situation. I lost my girlfriend for a while because of OCD and my job. You see, I would just pace and do rituals instead of working. They liked me a lot so they would have kept me, but I felt like I was going to go crazy so I just quit completely. That was one of the worst things I could have done because it just gave me more time to ruminate and perform useless rituals.
It's a change in how you view your situation is what the doctor ordered so to speak. You need to change the way that you communicate with your subconscious mind. Stop giving yourself commands that reinforce your OCD. You've got to give your subconscious mind commands that will empower you and depower OCD behavior. Say things like, my case is easy, I claim freedom from OCD. I am stronger than my OCD. My resolve to clear myself of OCD is stronger than OCD. I control OCD thoughts at all times. This will command your subconscious which drives your emotions. You've got to really be dedicated and the hardest part is just saying the right things to yourself. We talk to ourselves all the time. I wonder if I turned off the iron. I wonder if I will make it on time to work, etc. Well I have great news for you, you can control that voice! So start replacing bad things you tell yourself with good things and after a while you will notice a marked improvement. After all, if you are feeding good commands to your subconscious mind which controls your emotions don't you think you'll improve? It's inevitable and forced.

married 15+ years happily...5 kids...
Q.) married 15+ years happily...5 kids.. good life very loving wife recently i have had anxiety about my wifes previous sexual experiences before we were married.. (unfortuanely i asked one day recently on how many and it has haunted me ever since .. i always knew but now really effecting me)... i have unwanted mental vivid images in my mind now with my wife being intimate with someone else.. ... my family has a history of depression and anxiety... i dont feel depressed .. very anxious, heart racing... clamy hands, feet loss of appetite... lost about 10 pounds in 10 days... not a big fan of meds.. lost my mom to suicide (manic depressant) in the early 90s and she was on all types of meds... any natural ways to conquer...? Please help
A.) I would first go to your doctor to make sure that it's just anxiety. Then when you confirm that, then give unconditional trust to your wife. Thinking about these things is not going to help, just trust her until you have some kind of evidence. I would not look for it, just know that the truth always comes out and if anything happens, you'll find out. I knew this girl who would spy on her boyfriend and drive herself crazy obsessing about what he was doing and who he was with. She actually drove him to cheating. So just trust her. The rapid weight loss is not healthy and you should see your doctor about that. Communicate more with your wife and you'll find her to be more understanding if you guys open up to eachother.
