I’ve been struggling more with religious and existential ocd, does anyone know of any works books for either of these types of ocd?

I would like to know as well.
I’d like to know how to be good without being “too good”.
In the event you are a Christian - There are several resources you may find helpful. Mark DeJesus (MarkDeJesus.com), Jaimie Eckert (scrupulosity.com), and Dr Ian Osborn (OCDandChristianity.com). Dr Osborn is a Christian, OCD sufferer and Christian. Also, I recently published a book called "Waging War Against OCD - A Christian Approach to Victory." You can see more details at WagingWarAgainstOCD.com
You didn’t mention your religion but here is one for Islamic OCD as well that is grounded in religious teachings/proofs which I found really comforting: https://www.amazon.com/Islamic-Workbook-Religious-OCD-Compulsions/dp/1800119798/ref=asc_df_1800119798/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=692875362841&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8490031713280821328&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9208446&hvtargid=pla-2281435177618&psc=1&mcid=b6db913f060133c8ae0e3e1ff4e6ec69&hvocijid=8490031713280821328-1800119798-&hvexpln=73
Is anyone else here a Christian dealing with ocd? I could use some support because I've been having a hard time growing close to God ever since my ocd started getting bad. I deal with a lot of religious intrusive thoughts such as being unforgivable, or being cursed or possessed. What's some advice?
Any Christian’s with religion ocd and relationship ocd I feel so alone
Hi guys! I’m new to the community and I’ve recently received my OCD diagnosis (tho I’ve known about it since childhood). I’ve been somewhat spiraling lately as I wait for my first ERP session (hooray!) I was just wondering if any of you guys have received ERP for existential OCD and if it was successful? My existential OCD compulsions are more so mental and have been affecting me in the sense of dream/memory flashbacks and giving me a sort of “uncanny” feeling about everything around me. Any advice is appreciated! Thank you❤️
