valene, Are you able to get psychiatric counseling??? It does help for people to go to counseling that teaches you the why and what of the OCD behavior and how to adapt your behavior to a more acceptable pattern.

The one thing you can do it practice not asking the question or asking of affirmation. It takes a humongous amount of will power and self control to hold off on those behaviors, but like every thing else a person can learn to improve on their behavior. OCD is a behavaior and why it happens doesn't really make much difference. How to control it is the key question.

My OCD friend can just wear me out at times with the constant need for validation and answers to the same question asked in a different way. Sometimes I feel like she is trying to trick me and make a fool of me. Really difficult on relationships. Good luck. Irish
