So I am not a mental health professional but you seem to be reassurance seeking by your history. Common trait for OCD. I have heard good things about this provider https://www.treatmyocd.com/
The only coping mechanisms that has helped me is exercise and cooperative offline-games/pool/endeavour/gardening, volunteering can help too.
As social creatures, engaging in social activity tends to do great things for your mental health.
I’ve been battling with years of depression and I always feel my best when I get to hang out with friends.
Going outside and just sitting in the sun and eating a meal also helps. If you have woodlands near you, just taking a walk in the woods I found improves my mood for the day as well.
Being depressed and being inside go hand in hand. But I found that staying inside and alone just makes it worse
To your point of volunteering, nothing clears the head like doing some manual labor and helping people out. Often whoever you’re helping will be really appreciative and that just feels good.
