well if you keep washing your hands, if you are afraid of other people because of "germs", or if you wash your hands enough during the day that you fail to get things done. basically its kind of okay until it starts to effect your life. like right now are you wondering if you should wash your hands after touching the key board then you may want to seek help. but if you wash (for less than a minute) after you use the restroom and maybe a couple more times a day not a big deal.

OCD involves an unrealistic or justifiable fear that something will happen if the act is not accomplished. That is the difference.

ocd is inclusive to many things; that may just be a symptom.
