Need help and Is this OCD or not?

Salaam walaikum, I need help, I'm a Muslim, I pray 5 times a day, but idk what's going on in my head, it's like I'm going crazy I can't explain it, like for the last 3 months I've had no peace in my head, I believe Allah SWT exists but there's something in my head dragging me down saying he doesn't exist and there is no god, I've been praying tahajudd and making dua sincerely, please help idk what to do, I don't want to be an atheist but it's just thoughts running through my head making me crazy please help Idk if I'm possessed or something idk, I want to get these thoughts out of my head but I can't, I can't do anything, these thoughts are literally in my head like 24/7, I'm not in my normal state I can't explain it, it's like I'm in constant derealisation, i forget stuff alot, I am in constant stress, I get panic attacks. I'm not normal anymore I haven't had ease for 3 months straights, I get into state in my head that my mind goes blank I can't think straight, RN I'm in that state that I can't explain, the only way I can't get out of this is through Allah and islam, like a few days ago I got out of this state, was awake, was normal, had my memory back, I could think straight, the only way I can ignore this waswasa is if some is talking about Allah and me ignoring it and I keer forgetting how to ignore the waswasa I’m contstantly in my thoughts So I can’t think properly I can’t focus I’m constantly zoned out I feel so close to being normal yet so far I’m contstantly in my thoughts So I can’t think properly I can’t focus I’m constantly zoned out I feel so close to being normal yet so far I see everything like I’m high, I have memory loss I can’t think properly or critically, me it’s like I’m stuck in my mind, my head hurts when I try to focus, it’s like my brain is just blank,

Sorry you’re going through this. I’m not an expert but it sounds to me like you’re ruminating & trying to figure things out by going into the rabbit holes. I can relate with the rumination. Oftentimes I catch myself going down the OCD ruminating rabbit holes. When I do, I give myself some compassion and accept the uncertainty (maybe, maybe not) - knowing that we live with it everyday. At that moment I may practice some mindfulness meditation - Rather than to control the intrusive thoughts, I’m choosing instead not to engage with or judge them and watch them float on like clouds in the sky. After a moment or two, I’ll move forward with whatever I was doing. Not as a distraction but as a choice that I have other things to do. It takes practice and you too can do it. Know that you are not alone. Hope this helps!!!

It sounds like a lot of derealization/depersonalization. Ive felt this way for many months before. You have to calm yourself as best as you can. A sign of getting better is that youve snapped out of it for a little even if its just seconds thats the start of recovery.
