Have you tried meds or therapy? If you have a therapist maybe bring up your struggles with your parents with them.

You shouldn't have to fight this only on your own, if your parents have access to mental healthcare for you then that would be best. I get free service myself because I'm an adult without an income, so there are options for people who make little or no income. I'm sure there is something out there that can help you. I'm in the U.S. and I go to Grand Lake Mental Health.

Honestly with my ocd it’s hard to find therapist tbh. I just don’t like how my parents don’t listen to me when they try to help at times

@Coul.C Did you have a therapist that was trained to handle OCD specifically? Because I know that therapists who aren't trained for it can unintentionally make things worse. But it sounds like you already know that. My therapist isn't getting any help from her peers and higher ups in finding help fory OCD or someone who can help, so she said she'd see if they would pay for her training.

@Coul.C Parents wise i tell them what not to do lol. I cant remember telling them what they can do to help besides the few times i asked my dad to like take away some items so I wouldn’t do repetitive compulsions

@Coul.C Well asking to do that is definitely good for you to combat it in the long run.
