I'm really scared, please help

Hi. I've always wanted to tell people about my OCD, good thing this forum is here, and can someone tell me what kind of OCD this is?
I've had this anxiety since grade 8, when a classmate of mine(who was 2 feet taller than me) harasses me and twists my arm (for fun i guess), at that moment my hands were shaking, and my heart was beating really fast, it was like I was gonna faint. after that time, when i close my locker for school, i keep checking my locker several times. later, this action stopped and it escalates my symptoms even worse, everytime I see a stranger or a person who seems to be mean, my mind makes up all these thoughts of them/him hurting me(eg. like this one time I was scared that this person might poke me in the eye), and sometimes I keep thinking that them/he will insult and hurt my family. Mostly these thoughts haunt me for weeks and then it disappears. I resist these thoughts but in my inner mind something's telling me that "this ____ random person has hurt you, you have to do something about it.", and it makes my days really painful. It's not shallow as you see, until you feel it, it's really painful. Almost every month I have a different worry/fear and I'm scared about one specific thought and think about it almost everyday, and loses my time. Please, can someone please help me?

"Obsessionals: Obsessionals experience unwanted, intrusive and horrific thoughts and images of causing harm to others. Many Obsessionals engage in repetitive thoughts such as praying, counting, or repeating certain words, in order to counteract their disturbing thoughts."

I'm not any kind of pro, but that sounds like it. Only with others causing harm to you instead. The locker thing seems like a repetitve ritual to "counteract disturbing thoughts" Are you seeing a therapist about this? It would probably be helpful because it seems like you know the root of your OCD.

Can anyone tell me what strategies or things i can do to reduce my OCD?

the best advice that I could give you is that you seek professional help... especially if your OCD is now becoming a major nuisance in your daily activities.
