Unfortunately, I can't think of anything off the top of my head. I can't remember the blog I used to look through (this was a few years ago), and most of the advice I've come from other OCD-sufferers has been from an IRL friend.

I'd suggest looking for blogs, though, and for personal experiences rather than proper professional medical things at this point.

A word of advice, I'd say that you should focus on better managing your symptoms rather than trying to get rid of them all together. It's a more reachable goal than saying that you aren't going to have any symptoms, ever. For example, I used to feel really uncomfortable with having sticky things on my hands, but rather than try and make myself get used to it, I'd use a fork or chopsticks to eat popcorn.

Different anon

I have pretty severe OCD. What you describe sounds awfully familiar.

A book I found really helpful was The Complete Idiot's Guide to Obsessive Compulsive Behavior. No, seriously! I found it super down-to-earth and helpful.
