Is what I am experiencing obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)? And does the divorce pronounced due to obsessive thoughts take effect in my case, after I uttered it on two occasions: the first during anger, and the second when I repeated the experience with my tongue, knowing that I love my wife and do not wish to divorce her? So, when does the divorce of an obsessive person take effect, so that I can avoid it in the future?

What you are experiencing is obsessive-compulsive disorder, and no divorce occurs with it, because the certainty of marriage is not removed except by a certainty like it. There is no cure for these obsessions except by ignoring them and not indulging in thinking about the issue of divorce-related obsessions or reading about them, for this is a cause to strengthen the obsession.
