How should obsessive-compulsive disorder be treated
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a group of neurosis with obsessive-compulsive symptoms (mainly including obsessive-compulsive ideas and behaviors) as its main clinical manifestations. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a state in which self-compulsion and self-compulsion coexist. Specifically, patients know that the persistence of certain situations is meaningless and unreasonable, but they can't control the recurrence. If you try to resist, the worse the situation, the more painful you will be. It is completely unnecessary to know these thoughts and behaviors clearly, but you can't control them yourself.

Western medicine research shows that patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder have various symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder because of the dysfunction of neuroendocrine system, which leads to the imbalance of neurotransmitters. It can be seen that the imbalance of neurotransmitters in the patient's brain is the fundamental cause of its onset. Chinese medicine: the kidney is connected to the brain! Kidney essence turns into brain marrow, kidney essence is insufficient, marrow sea is not full, brain dystrophy, brain apraxia. The clinical manifestations are memory loss, listlessness and even neurosis such as social phobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The kidney essence is sufficient, the marrow sea is full, and the brain marrow is nourished. A person has strong memory, full spirit, clear consciousness, sensitive thinking and clear language. An undeniable fact has been confirmed by thousands of cases, that is, masturbation does more harm to the kidneys than to the brain! Everyone knows that masturbation hurts the prostate, but masturbation hurts the brain even more! The decline of brain power has a great influence on life, study and work. Brain power is competitiveness. Without brain power, life is gloomy!

Symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder generally include:

1. Obsessive-compulsive thinking: Patients repeatedly think about some thoughts, such as doubt, memory, fatigue, etc.

2. Compulsive behavior: The patient repeatedly does some unnecessary behaviors, such as repeated examination, repeated hand washing, repeated counting, ritual movements, etc.

There are many kinds of obsessive-compulsive disorder, including obsessive-compulsive disorder of distracting thoughts, obsessive-compulsive disorder of expectation, obsessive-compulsive disorder of washing hands, obsessive-compulsive disorder of symmetry, obsessive-compulsive disorder of anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder of asking questions, obsessive-compulsive disorder of fear, obsessive-compulsive disorder of immoral ideas, obsessive-compulsive disorder of exhaustion, obsessive-compulsive disorder of memory, obsessive-compulsive disorder of numbers, obsessive-compulsive disorder of body, obsessive-compulsive disorder of examination, obsessive-compulsive disorder of salivation, obsessive-compulsive disorder of ritual and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Severe obsessive-compulsive disorder is extremely painful, and many patients have suicidal thoughts. Suicide is extremely irresponsible to life and family, but it seems to be a relief to be driven to that point by pain. Many neurosis patients not only have psychological pain, but also have many physical symptoms, which makes patients' subjective feelings like fish on the shore. It seems that every second is suffering, and every second is suffering. It seems that it will completely collapse in the next second. Depression patients have a high suicide rate, so they have received a lot of attention. In fact, there are many cases of obsessive-compulsive disorder patients committing suicide. Clinical research shows that the most common complications of obsessive-compulsive disorder are anxiety and depression. Severe obsessive-compulsive disorder can lead to depression. Under the double oppression of compulsion and depression, patients are easy to commit suicide.

Etiology of obsessive-compulsive disorder

First, genetic factors: personality characteristics are influenced by heredity, and the incidence of obsessive-compulsive disorder is related to personality characteristics, so obsessive-compulsive disorder is related to heredity.

Second, personality characteristics: obsessive-compulsive personality, characterized by formality, hesitation, frugality, caution, carefulness, excessive attention to details, good thinking and pursuit of perfection.

Third, organic factors: clinically, patients with lethargic encephalitis and temporal lobe contusion can see obsessive-compulsive symptoms.

Socio-psychological factors: such as the blow of work, the change of the surrounding environment gap, the unexpected death of relatives or family discord, and the tension caused by economic difficulties.

5. Mental factors: All social and psychological factors that can cause long-term mental stress and anxiety or accidents that bring heavy mental shock are the inducing factors of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

These are the basic causes of general obsessive-compulsive disorder. In the articles about obsessive-compulsive disorder, sexual indulgence is rarely listed as one of the reasons. However, after a large number of case studies and personal experiences in recent years, it is completely clear that masturbation is a potential factor inducing obsessive-compulsive disorder. Masturbation is very harmful to the brain. Many people have obsessive-compulsive disorder after masturbation, but they get better before masturbation. But my research and investigation also show that masturbation is only one factor leading to obsessive-compulsive disorder. After all, there are many factors leading to obsessive-compulsive disorder, and there are many types of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Ordinary people occasionally have a slight sense of compulsion, but it is not serious and generally does not affect their daily lives. Serious obsessive-compulsive disorder should actively seek medical treatment, read more relevant books and articles, and improve their level of understanding. This is a strange circle, a maze. Others can help you and inspire you, but in the end you have to go out on your own.

Classification of obsessive-compulsive disorder in traditional Chinese medicine

(1) The main symptoms of guilty conscience and timidity: inappropriate or unnecessary thoughts often appear, causing tension and being unable to get rid of it, accompanied by palpitations.

(2) The main symptom of hyperactivity of fire due to yin deficiency is obvious compulsion. If you have the idea of jumping from a height, you will feel restless, sleepy and thirsty.

(3) Deficiency of both qi and blood: The symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder are mainly obsessive-compulsive, persistent and intermittent, with a long course of disease.

(4) The main symptoms of heart-yang deficiency are compulsive actions, such as compulsive counting and washing hands.

(5) Main symptoms of water vapor: obsessive-compulsive symptoms, uncontrollable self-control, mostly compulsive thinking, accompanied by palpitations, thirst and less urine.

(6) Main symptoms of blood stasis: Most of the symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder are obsessive-compulsive thinking, accompanied by palpitation, chest discomfort, heartburn and acupuncture-like pain.

(7) Main symptoms of phlegm-fire disturbing the heart: Most symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder are obsessive-compulsive behavior, accompanied by palpitation, easily frightened, chest tightness and irritability, insomnia and dreaminess.

According to the TCM classification of obsessive-compulsive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder is based on physical disorder, which means that physical disorder will lead to psychological disorder. Body and mind are integrated and interact. It's not that obsessive-compulsive disorder is just a simple psychological problem. Many people have this misunderstanding. He thinks he has obsessive-compulsive disorder, which is a mental illness. He doesn't know that psychological symptoms are closely related to physical disorders. Different physical disorders show different obsessive-compulsive symptoms. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it is better to understand why indulgence can lead to obsessive-compulsive disorder, because the kidney is the root of the five internal organs, and the kidney stores essence and essence of the five internal organs. Masturbation hurts the five internal organs. Once the body loses its balance, it is easy to suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder. These seven causes are all related to the heart of Dachuan, and the heart and kidney are closely related. The heart is yang, located on the diaphragm, belonging to yang and fire. The kidney is located in the lower jiao and belongs to yin and water. The relationship between heart and kidney is mainly manifested in the intersection of Yin and Yang and the relationship between fire, water and ji ji. Physiologically, the heart fire must go down to the kidney to support the kidney yang to warm the kidney water, so that the kidney water is not cold; Kidney water must go up to the heart, support the heart yin to conserve the heart yang, so that the heart fire is not prosperous, thus maintaining the harmonious balance of the heart, kidney and even the whole body. Traditional Chinese medicine calls this relationship between heart and kidney "intersection of heart and kidney" and "fire and water ji ji". Masturbation hurts the kidney, which will inevitably destroy the harmony between heart and kidney, and the symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder will appear when the essence is injured to a certain extent. There are many factors leading to physical disorders, among which masturbation will damage the kidneys.

Rehabilitation of obsessive-compulsive disorder

1. Alignment

Adjust yourself

3. Homologous mind and body

There are many books about the rehabilitation of obsessive-compulsive disorder, but no matter what kind of books, we must solve a core problem: what should I do if the idea of compulsion comes? The idea of coercion is strange, even bizarre. How to deal with these ideas? How to deal with these ideas? This is the most critical and core. Obsessive-compulsive disorder patients all know Morita therapy, also called Zen therapy. It is easy to misunderstand that the words "let nature take its course" and "let nature take its course" are mentioned in it, thinking that letting nature take its course is to follow the compulsory concept and go with the flow. That's not what I meant. If you run with a compulsion, you are constantly reinforcing it. Let nature take its course, the correct understanding is: don't run with forced thoughts, just don't remember! If you run with compulsion, you will become "unnatural" because nature is a relatively relaxed state. It is "unnatural" for you to run with a sense of compulsion and make yourself very painful and anxious.

Morita therapy comes from Zen, and the four key words of Zen practice are: don't follow if you want to! Free thinking, I will not follow you, I will not strengthen you, so I will not be kidnapped by forced thoughts. Strictly speaking, breaking is not confrontation, but not following. If you don't follow, there will be no second, third, fourth or even fifth, sixth and seventh thoughts. . . This is the kung fu of observation. Keep an eye on your own thoughts and don't run with forced thoughts, which is similar to the principle of abstinence from color. Abstinence from color is not running with evil thoughts. Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder must do it, and don't run with forced thoughts.

Some compulsive thoughts can be treated by thinking, while others can't, because some compulsive thoughts are ridiculous and meaningless. At this time, it is difficult to use hints and thinking. The more you try to convince that idea, the more you can't, the more you fight, the more painful it is, so the best way at this time is to "not follow", just like two people quarreling, I won't quarrel with you, but I can ignore you. If you ignore the idea of compulsion, it will become stronger! It is equivalent to enhancing its energy. If you really can't keep up with it, its energy will not be strengthened, just as flowers will naturally wither without nutrients. Obsessive-compulsive disorder patients clearly know that some ideas are completely unnecessary, but they just can't control them. To treat obsessive-compulsive disorder from the perspective of regulating the mind, then you must learn to cultivate your mind, that is, cultivate your mind and increase your observation and control of your thoughts, instead of letting your thoughts control you! This is control and anti-control! Some people are cured by "giving up". Giving up is a very clever control. Give up the idea of chasing compulsion, and it will be fine naturally. The truth inside seems simple, but it is deep. To cure obsessive-compulsive disorder, you should understand these truths.

Morita therapy really cured many people. Morita therapy originated from Zen Buddhism. Buddhism pays attention to cultivating the heart, that is, cultivating the heart! Grasping this core, the recovery of obsessive-compulsive disorder will become simple. Otherwise, it's like entering a maze, and you can't get out for years or even decades. It's bitter and bitter!

As I mentioned in the above article, because obsessive-compulsive disorder is the basis of physical disorder, it is expected to improve symptoms through drug conditioning. I generally recommend Chinese medicine conditioning, although the effect is slow, but if you take it symptomatic, the effect is still good.

Let me introduce another healing method, which also belongs to the category of physical adjustment. This is how I was cured! I have read a lot about obsessive-compulsive disorder, but they rarely mention this method. They are all thinking and theorizing with you, but I won't tell you anything about obsessive-compulsive disorder in this way. I will only tell you six words: stick to abstinence and stay healthy! By abstaining from color and keeping in good health, obsessive-compulsive thinking can gradually disappear and psychology can return to normal, just like a stubborn piece of ice, which is difficult to break with a hammer. If you put it in the sun, it will melt slowly. This beam of sunshine is to abstain from color and keep healthy! You don't need to read articles about obsessive-compulsive disorder. You just need to stick to abstinence from color and keep healthy, and it will come naturally! If the snake knot resolves itself, you can easily resolve the obsessive-compulsive thinking that you can't overcome with all your efforts. This is the method I introduced. Many abstainers have cured obsessive-compulsive disorder by abstaining from color and keeping in good health. Some abstainers are troubled and tortured by compulsion and social phobia every time they start to quit, but after half a year, they say to me, "My compulsion is good, and social phobia has recovered." This is the fact that abstinence from color and health care can make neurosis incurable. My original social phobia, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and abstinence from color care will be fine for more than a year.

Body and mind are two sides of an organic whole, just like a jigsaw puzzle, with a map of the world on the front and a head on the back. When the map of the world is spelled correctly, the head on the back is naturally correct. Spell the head right, and the positive world map will be right. The heart is right, and the body is naturally right; If you are right, your heart will naturally follow! It is so subtle that it is very good for physical and mental adjustment. In fact, the best thing is to keep in tune with your body and mind, keep in good health, learn to examine your own ideas and strictly follow them. As long as you really do it, obsessive-compulsive disorder will be cured!
