Obsessive compulsive disorder

Question

Asked for Male, 22 Years

Hello, I need help to control my OCD thoughts but I'm not really sure if my condition counts as an OCD. I always had the fear of contamination and if I not wash my hands again something bad will happen and I keep my distance from anything that is touched by anyone else. Please help
