What is the obsessive compulsive disorder?
Obsessive disorder is a mental disorder in which purposeless and annoying thoughts keep entering our conscious mind repeatedly. In compulsive disorder purposeless and annoying movements keep repeating.The wrong approach to the disorder:OCD is a highly misunderstood mental disorder. The obsessive thoughts and compulsive movements are jut the symptoms caused by an underlying cause, the Unified Negative Emotion. Unfortunately, all research and treatment is aimed at the symptoms, leaving the cause untouched, making the symptoms last forever.What causes obsessive compulsive disorder?What makes purposeless and annoying thoughts enter our conscious mind that too repeatedly? Why can't we simply abolish them? Why do we allow them to manifest as actions? Why don't we abolish them? To answer these questions we must know the mechanism called competitive blockadeCompetitive blockade:If two thoughts try to enter the conscious mind at precisely the same time it would lead to abolition of all movements, emotions, feelings and thoughts leading to false peace and false self-control.This is the easiest way of having false peace and false self-control.The thought to be blocked is the Unified Negative Emotion.The blocking thought, which would later manifest as obsession or/ and compulsion can be any thought and thus there is no point in enlisting them.The automatic blockade:Manual blockade is Ideal. However, it needs voluntary force, which is generated during success only.Thus, when we fail repeatedly voluntary force becomes scarce and we have to make the blockade automatic sooner or later.Successful automatic blockade:To make the blockade automatic we must first make the Unified Negative Emotion enter our conscious mind when we are alone and free. Once this starts coming at a time convenient to us we can make the blocking thought to come at precisely the same time. We can correct small error in timing using voluntary force.However, often the Unified Negative Emotion keeps entering our conscious mind at times when we are very busy.The machine gun blockade:If the voluntary force is too scarce or when the obsessive thought keeps entering the conscious mind at lightning speed, then we have to make the blocking thought multiple so that they attack the Unified Negative Emotion like machine gun fire and thus enhance the chances of success of blockade.The obsessive thoughts:When blockade is successful the salvo of blocking thoughts too gets abolished. If our prediction of time of arrival of the Unified Negative Emotion is wrong then blocking thoughts alone enter the conscious mind as obsessive thoughts.Thus, obsessive thoughts are like two edged swords that we can neither keep nor discord.Compulsive actions:If the blockade fails then instead of the Unified Negative Emotion, which is socially less acceptable, we allow the socially more acceptable blocking thought to manifest as action. This results in repetition of purposeless actions, which we call compulsion.

What is anxiety disorder-?
Anxiety disorders are medically recognised problems with fear and anxiety. Typical examples include Generalised Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder. Generally with anxiety disorders the sufferer is stuck in a loop where the ways in which they attempt to cope with their fears keeps them fearful. The most notable coping strategy is avoidance. Anxiety disorders are also typically associated negative thoughts. One belief amongst the general public and some professionals is that anxiety disorders are called by a chemical imbalance in brain chemistry, more specifically regarding the neuro-transmitter serotonin. Evidence for this comes from variations in brain scans between control subjects and people with an anxiety disorder, and from the fact that taking medications that alter serotonin levels can help relieve these disorders. However, this evidence does not well supported for the hypothesis of neuro-transmitter dysfunction as pure psychological interventions which do not directly alter brain chemistry have high success rates. Therefore, medication use for anxiety can be more seen as something that creates an artificial state of well-being rather than correcting an underlying problem. Typcial treatments for anxiety disorders are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy including Graded Exposure, and medications. SSRI medications are usually the first to be tried.
