yes, i have had it for awhile. it's utterly horrible and consuming of the most important part of yourself--your faith. it hurts to pray because a little voice in your head will say something blasphemous or you will have to repeat and beg God for forgiveness 800 times before it feels ok again when in reality he heard you the first time. it really really sucks having this OCD, for me it developed after having regular hand-washing OCD. i guess OCD just changes over time, you can never really shake it.
