I've had mental health problems all of my adult life. I am in my 30's. I actually have many Muslim friends and my wife is from a Muslim majority country, though not a Muslim herself.
One of my conditions is OCD -- I have obsessive and impulsive thoughts. In these obsessive spells that I have -- have very scary and (what you would say) are blasphemous thoughts about Pope Francis, Prophet Muhammad and Prophet Joseph Smith. I also have intense thoughts about punishing my enemies and circumcision. For example, I don't have these obsessive thoughts about Prophet Muhammad and Pope Francis as the same time. They are separate trains of thought.
These thoughts are so bad, you will just have to take my word for it. I don't want to state specifics. Let's just say -- they are so bad that if I publicly shared them in a place like Iran or Somalia - I would be executed on the spot.
How do Muslims address OCD or obsessive or intrusive thoughts? What can someone who is mentally ill do -- when their illness keeps causing them to speak and think blasphemy?
