Have you tried the therapies specifically intended for OCD? "Brain Lock" and "Stop Obsessing" both talk about treatments that have proven to be effective, either combined with medications or even on their own.
Of course, my brain seems to form one obsessive rut after another. Even if I stop one, another pops up in its place.
I know this sounds counterintuitive, but I think even the negative obsessions serve to smooth my anxiety by distracting myself with ridiculous fears, instead of looking at the more realistic ones. I think my brain does its best to keep me stable, but I try to channel it into more productive methods. (With mixed success.)
