It's hard. You should look for a psychologist who specializes in cognitive behavioral control. You may find medication helps, but before taking that route, I recommend trying the behavior therapy only. If not, the meds can really help, once you find the right one(s) and dosage. I'm on meds, still with bad OCD, but not as bad as it used to be.
