Are you on antidepressants or any medication?
If not, look into Rhodiola Roses for short term anxiety relief. 2-3 weeks tops then cycle off for a month.
OCD and anxiety go hand in hand.

Have you tried supplementing with N-acetylcysteine? It apparently works for some people (though not all).
FWIW, I believe the answer to your question is "yes".

I've had a severe case my entire life. IMO see a psychiatrist. For me at least the depression and anxiety it caused me made even the smallest tasks extremely difficult. Make sure to work on handling your symptoms and wait for the medication to start working before you try becoming alpha because you can't be alpha if your not feeling well. Also, exercise really helps relieve anxiety. Hope I helped

No, because OCD is a weakness of your willpower.

How would you recommend dealing with it. Compulsions calm the distress felt from the obsessions and Im not sure willpower can stop intrusive thoughts.

Focus your mind to observe the present moment. A great technique is to observe yourself with detachment.

No its not you idiot. Its like tourretes syndrome with thoughts instead physical ticks. It's incredibly difficult to handle. Its caused by a deficiency of serotonin, not something that one can control.

Meditation improves serotonin levels

A lot of things do but unless you are always meditating or exercising or whatever its not a consistent enough supply.
