Best Answer

Try to "live with" the obsessions without performing the compulsions. For example, if you are obsessed with hand washing, stop washing your hands until the obsession goes away or if you feel the need to recheck locked windows, doors etc., force yourself not to. This can be difficult, but if you work at it, your ocd should calm down....if not, you may want to seek a psychologist/psychiatrist, because it's just no good to go through life that way.
