2: Goes without saying do reach out to friends and family that you feel you can trust.

3: See your GP there are plenty of modern doctors out there who are very clued up and understand OCD so it is always worth going to see your GP, on the off chance they are not so helpful remember you are entitled to a second opinion from other doctors.
