Do you think there is a chance to stop doing it without seeking help? Thanks for your input!

I think many normal people have experienced little OCD moments.....like when we doubt if locked the door or turned of the iron. Have you had any other obsessive experiences? If you can't handle this on your own then you should get professional help. Sorry to hear you Grandpa passed away - stress can trigger things sometimes.
When you start to have the urges - I'm sure you go through a mental battle with yourself - like "should I do it but I don't want to." You doing the ritual helps calm you ...yet you struggle with it. I hope it gets better for you and know you're not alone with this struggle.
