Hi and thank yoou so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this OCD and the consequences this has had on your life.

Please, I will suggest that you get consulted and managed by a psychiatrist. Rebuilding your confidence needs a one on one thorough discussion to identify exactly what the weaknesses are and how to address them. Drugs and pssychotherapy alongside frequent evaluation qnd adjustment of treatment would help ensure that you get there. The most important thing is your motivation and willingness to address this and I can tell you are already showing these attributes.

I hope this helps. I wish you success on this journey.
Thank you for using our services.
