Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,
I hope you are all doing well.
I wanted to share something I’ve been struggling with for about a year now. I believe I am facing OCD, especially related to taharah (purity).
I constantly feel that everything in my house — doorknobs, switches, appliances — is najis. I even feel my bed is najis. It’s gotten so bad that I struggle to use my phone, and I avoid university because I fear others’ hands might have najis, and it could transfer to me. This has badly affected my studies and grades.
It has also made me avoid praying Salah sometimes, because I fear my shoes touched najis, which then transferred to my jeans and places I sit.
I know it sounds strange, but this is my reality.
I also wash my hands so much that my skin is now badly damaged, dry, and painful.
The stress has become overwhelming, and sometimes suicidal thoughts cross my mind, which terrifies me.
I remind myself that Allah (SWT) does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear (Qur'an 2:286), and I am trying to seek help and stay hopeful.
If anyone has experienced something similar or has advice or duas to recommend, I would be very grateful.
Please keep me in your duas.
Jazakum Allahu Khairan.
