Hi

I don't have OCD, but my husband does and it manifests in almost the exact same way as yours does. I understand how exhausting it is for you and how hard it is to keep track of everything and prevent cross contamination of the clean and dirty areas/objects. 

Massive respect to you for getting help from psychologist/psychiatrist/meds, that's a huge step and good progress in the right direction. Keep it up!

My husband refuses to get any help for his so we just try to manage it ourselves as best as possible. We weren't doing too badly, but had a friend live with us for 6 months last year which (as you would know) just kind of screwed up everything. Almost a year later and we're stil trying to make the house livable again.

That event looks really interesting, I will try to get along to it.
