Stray thoughts

Q: I'm in a stage in my life where I am in the azaab of Allah. (I have psychosis and ocd. I am not able to perform Salaah most of the times and I have thoughts that make me fall out of Islam.) What thoughts make me go out of Islam and also I have these doubs that I am a muslim all the time because of this. Second, when you think you are not a muslim are you out of Islam?

A: You are a Muslim. There is no need to pay attention to these stray thoughts and doubts.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
