Hello, I hope everyone's doing well

I don't know how to explain it, but Everytime I study when Im uncomfortable or if someone that I dont like or that I think I have uncomfortable thoughts about (Like I dont like that person or I dont like the way I thought about that person?) touches my books I just want to rebuy them. That happened maybe like twiceOr maybe someone that I think I had a bad past with which may sound not sensible but it happens... I reassured myself said first past this year and order new ones in the summer. Or recently something happend and I still havent touched the stuff that has something to do with it. I avoided touching them. I feel like my stuff gets contaminated by my thoughts. Its not severe but I wanted to share

You should sit with uncomfortable feelings, but you shouldn't suddenly do this. If you can, use therapy. If not, you should learn about not engaging with your mind. They are just thoughts. Learn to be an observer, and then allow your feelings to come up and let them go later. Do the opposite of your OCD. You can educate yourself and then start ERP. If you're still not ready, you can use a wet cloth and a little soap, or even just a clean and dry cloth, to clean the book that they touched. Later, tell yourself that it's okay, whatever feelings you have about them, and let the emotions go. Doesn't need to buy a new book and shouldn't at least give you a little resistance in front of your OCD, but not buying again or throwing out.Remember, you have to break the cycle of OCD; otherwise, it will become harder and create new rules. Cleaning is only temporary relief.

I even feel like my stuff are emotionally contaminated from what I avoided mentioning,
