OCD intrusive thoughts

Question

Hi Rebbe, How to deal with intrusive, evil and deeply blasphmeous thoughts that are creeping into our minds? Is that something sinful?

Answer

Shalom!

Thank you for writing.

First of all, if you know you have a medical condition of OCD you must seek help to control it and preferably be healed from it.

Meanwhile, read books of faith, ethics, and inspiring stories. You can find many such books at www.artscroll.com
