How do you build up mental resistance so that you are bothered by ocd or disturbing thoughts?

Sometimes I get this issue where I will randomly get an anxiety attack around a married or unavailable man when the idea or suggestion of dating comes into my head. Often it is guilt over liking somebody that is unavailable but sometimes it is also fear of becoming obsessed or degraded by them. I am not sure why this bothers me in a way that it doesn't seem to bother others but I have had this problem ever since I was 9 years old and maybe even younger. Today I was in a bad mood and even though the suggestion of becoming anxious over a forbidden love interest kept appearing in my brain unwittingly it didn't seem to be able to phase me as much as it usually does. I think this is because my mind was too busy reacting to my bad mood to care about anything else. I've concluded that I can avoid and cure myself from psychological disorders or emotionally maladaptive behaviour by keeping myself busy - not just physically but mentally, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually and socially. That in keeping myself busy I can avoid all of life's major problems.

The things you are doing sound good... but what happens when you stop... like when you are getting ready for bed or having down time?

I had the same types of issues last year. I tried to be busy and it worked while I was busy. Eventually, I had to do something because they began breaking into my head. I then thought about doing something different... instead of distracting my mind I would try to remove the issue all together or limit the events... I used hypnosis and it work. I would recommend doing some videos from youtube. com Try this one: www. youtube. com/ watch? v=Oy6Kh1S3sL0

I beat my OCD by going against it. it if said to take two steps, or whatever, I stayed still. if it said to stay still, I moved. It was hard, but it had to leave me.

It also sounds like you have some fear issues. I can tell you that God has helped me overcome so much in my life.

Whatever weighty emotion is overtaking you when you are around taken guys, you need to come against it, and even go through it. If he is single, try talking to him. it will break the curse of OCD that's on you.
