Ok well im 16 with OCD for the most part i got it under control but it gets tricky at night.I watch tv before i go to bed.When i go to turn the tv off it has to be off on a "good" "happy" world or topic or else i fear something bad will happen.I can spend sometimes up to 30 mins trying to find the right word or topic to turn it off on.I cant seem to just turn it off and walk away...Any ideas

The satisfied feeling that you get when you feel able to turn it off is like a drug (serotonin in fact). The longer and more consistently you deny this feeling of satisfaction the less hold it will have over you.
