The only things that have helped are the right meds, and lowering and dealing with my stressors. The higher the stress, the worse the OCD. My meds keep me from being housebound with OCD, but that's it. It still rules my life with an iron fist, right along with my bipolar.

Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
