I'm a clean/organization freak

[Lissa]

Anyone else have this problem?

My OCD doesn't manifest itself in that way, but I know the anxiety that it causes regardless.  I think for OCD with compulsions you should consider Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.  Look into it.  Stay away from alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine especially as well as other recreational drugs.  Eat well and exercise.  All of this will help.  I also meditate every morning and that is helpful as well.  Check out:

There are lots of free books on meditation and mindfulness which would benefit you.  If your quality of life doesn't increase enough using these techniques then it may be wise to find an anxiety disorder specialist in your area and get an appointment.

I hope this helps,
