Trying to stop OCD

Okay, I'm 13 and I've known that I have OCD for about a year now... I REALLY don't want to talk to someone in therapy. Actually, hardly anyone knows that I actually do have OCD, and I don't think even my parents have noticed. I have random urges to repeat words sometimes, and that gets really annoying. I have little things that I always have to do, like tap certain doorknobs, or turn off a light 3 times, or make sure that i've tapped a certain painting on my wall. I've also read on multiple internet sources that OCD and other anxiety disorders can cause mild depression, which I think I might have. What I'm wondering is what will happen if i just try to STOP all these habits? I've tried stopping a couple times before, and my mind just starts obsessing over them for a while. But wouldn't my mind just go kinda wacko if I just stopped all the habits and then I kept obsessing over all the things I didn't tap, or check, or whatever?

Im no expert but i have been with anxiety for many years now. If you stop it will bother you for some time. It will take all that you have inside to put a stop to it. After some time your mind may "give up" so to speak, then you can focus on your life and get in touch with your body and your feelings instead of being disconnected with everything thats around you. The longer you continue negativity the harder it is to get out. Make a solid effort and reach within.

I agree. Sure you might obsess over it for awhile but the chances of you being able to stop thinking about it over time will greaty improve. Try and keep your mind busy with other things. Don't stop your mind on one thing and leave it there. Keep going.
Good luck,
