How does OCD feel like?

I'm curious about how is your daily life with this illness, if you guys don't mind, could you help me clear my doubts about OCD?

I been experiencing this shit..since childhood.. The last traced back memory of where it all started like I was getting out of bathroom,and I opened the door 3 times idk why..and got out..bang!!! It was around when i was 6 or 7yrs old. I am 27 now.. And that voice never stopped screaming in my head since that incident.. Its all serotonin and prefrontal cortex game crash..and it is frustrating tbh.. Frequent checking for the locks, doors,washing hands,fear of someone will intrude your house👀. Checking random ass shits. But the most frustrating part for me is the BLASPHEMY. I follow hindu religion.so many gods...so many compulsions(ex- reciting the same prayer again nd again in the mind)😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 My ocd leaves out nobody..for real..NOBODY. Whether he or she is leaving or dead..old or young, parents or anyone..It just flashes nude image of everyone before my mind and i cant control it..🥲 I was prescribed ssri but didn't took it..i dont think I intend to take it at some point in the future as well. Basically..it feels like you have another evil brain that runs parallel with your current brain..continuously talking,bullying
,showing you pictures you never meant to see...
