It is much easier: To work on ocd with a therapist. They will help you with tips (behavior modification or cognitive behavioral) or help you try to understand what unconscious issues may be behind the thoughts (more psychoanalytic therapies).

Yes: To get a diagnosis of ocd, you only need to have either obsessions or compulsions.
