Default How can I improve my OCD?

I started noticing severe OCD at around year 2006.

I have 2 types of OCD :

A) Future worries for no reason.
B) Doing repititive things (checking stuff multiple before I leave home for work)

I am programmed like a computer. If there are no worries for A then B will automatically take over.

I did see a Psychiatrist in 2006 and gave me SSRI's which helped over 75% of my OCD which was very good. First I was on Pexeva then Paxil CR. I am on Paxil CR 50mg now for couple years. It helps about 60% but still not happy. I can't take a higher dose because of the Drowiness. My main concern is the Type A that I described.

Overall, my OCD has improved slightly better then where I was in any of those years.
