Crystals for Obsession & Compulsion
Obsessions and compulsions are two sides of the same coin. Obsessive thoughts often arise from anxiety, while compulsion is a repetitive behavior that helps relieve some of that anxiety. These remedies can help you relieve the anxiety without resorting to compulsions, and they can be used as a complement to professional behavioral therapy.

Meditation
One of the issues that arises with obsession and compulsion is that your mind gets stuck in a thought loop. When this occurs, close your eyes and breathe deeply, repeating the mantra several times until you have reset your thoughts.
Remedy #1: Ametrine
Ametrine is a combination of amethyst and citrine, both of which can calm any compulsions and obsessions while helping to relax your mind. Amethyst is a third eye chakra stone, which controls your thoughts, while citrine is a solar plexus chakra stone, which affects your self-image. Carry ametrine with you, and when you notice obsessive thoughts and compulsive behavior starting, hold it in your hand as you repeat the mantra 10 times.
Remedy #2: Herkimer Diamond
Wear a Herkimer diamond around your neck to help release and relieve stress and calm you. This can support you as you learn new thought processes, amplifying the work you are doing with your therapist to relieve your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.
Remedy #3: Citrine & Amethyst Chakra Work
Lie on your back with a piece of amethyst on your third eye chakra and a piece of citrine on your solar plexus chakra. Visualize energy flowing between the two chakras. Do this daily for at least 10 minutes, cleansing your crystals after use, until you feel the hold your obsession has on you is lessening.
