I was married for 14 years to a woman who had severe OCD. I know what you have gone through. I'm not a psychiatrist, so don't get me wrong when I say this. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, but it is very treatable if you get the right doctor. I encourage you to seek one out if you haven't already.
By the way, if you don't believe in god, what are you afraid of? Or are you saying that you do believe in god, but simply no longer have faith?

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
