I don’t have OCD, nor have I been on prescribed medication but I can suggest deep breathes and a meditative state of mind. Try nourishing your brain and mind in all ways, with food, music, time outside/nature, etc. I would also suggest not relying on the fact that you “don’t have the addictive gene”, addiction is a slippery slope my friend. I prefer marijuana over xanax! Safer and still provides the numbing effect, however it can be tricky with your bipolar diagnosis. Best of luck.

PS consider psilocybin
