OCD only manifests itself with extreme cleanliness in one of many forms of the illness.
It sounds as if you're ruminating a lot. I'm not sure where they draw the line between ruminations and OCD.
Have you ever read "The Boy Who Couldn't Stop Washing"? It helped me see my OCD much more clearly. What I had always considered phobias really fell more into the OCD category. And some of my thoughts were classic OCD.
