Anyone else got a bad case of OCD? What helps? (Sorry for the rant.)

Obviously, CBT/ERP. I stumbled on a Reddit post about "peripheral staring OCD," and it hit me that while that doesn't describe my symptoms 100% (I don't believe I have the tourette's type parts), it is far closer than anything I have thought about or explained to a doc to be diagnosed with.

It hits especially hard because even like 5-ish years ago, when I was binge drinking, it was half as bad (at worst, probably less even). And even before that, it was so manageable that I would go months or even years without any symptoms. I thought if I quit drinking, it would be some magical fix, but nah. It's been months, and it hasn't gotten better. Definitely affecting me at my job, socializing, dating, etc.

But yeah, I'm here because the Reddit page is a nightmare. Many people just give up or accept the worst. I got a feeling it's something that can eventually be managed, and being a dramatic loser (and likely not even doing the therapy, let's be real) is what that page was for.

If anyone has some insight here, I would greatly appreciate it. I had no idea I had these issues even a week ago, but I am extremely aware now, and it's a scary concept.
