I definitely hear you that these rituals/obsessions can get so intense that it causes physiological symptoms like nausea and headaches. Have you tried resisting the rumination at all? Or maybe reducing it, postponing it? OCD usually wants us to answer some type of question - we have to try as hard as we can to not answer! :)
I do try to avoid rumination yet sometimes it feels like I’m ignoring hence it’ll intensify even more or try to force me to think about it, then it’ll lead me feeling anxious and unsettled
