Answers:
meds dont work ,you need CBT behavior therapy,
and ERP exposure and response prevention therapy!.
what helped me was self-help books
like Getting Control Overcoming your obsessions and compulsions by LEe Baer!.

Meds have made a really big difference for me, but they dont work for everyone, you usually have to try out a whole bunch before you find the right combination, it took me 3 years! I also do cognitive behavioral therapy, its a really really big help, it helps you to change your though patterns!. Don't worry, you'll find a way to get better! Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i've neven been able to stop mine!. and in the past it has really affected me badly!. i just learned to cope with them!. good luck girl!Www@Answer-Health@Com
