I have OCD. At this time I have diagnosed myself. I want to go to a doctor but I am embarressed. I want to tell my family and husband but I am can't. I can't take this anymore it is getting worse and driving me crazy with the stupid things I do. Are there any over the counter vitamins or medicine that I can take? I don't want to go see a therapist. If I could just get some medicine to clear my mind of all these things going on. The numbers, counting, repeating things a certain amount of times, if someone asks me to turn off a light, I will make an excuse on not to do it because I did not turn it on, if I go in a store one way I have to come out the same way, can't use a different door, touching things in a certain ways, have a routine or order of getting dressed, it goes on and on. I can't take it.

Please see a doctor and get the proper treatment. Therapy should help you and you shouldn't feel embarrassed to seek help.
