welcome to the forums.....i have been battling ocd for the last 30 years......one thing that has helped me in the past with those intrusive thoughts is to write it down on paper and throw it away...sometimes...not all the time....i can remove them from my head to the paper....then tear it up and throw it away....i was on prozac for 15 yrs and it helped alot but the side affects bothered me almost as much as the ocd....i weened myself off of the prozac (not a good idea without a doctors guidance) but although some of the ocd has returned..i feel better overall....if i can be of any help to you...let me know
