Hello dear
I understand your concern
Frequent urination could be due to psychogenic, diabetes mellitus/insipidus.
Take following advises to rule out above causes
I would suggests to get following tests done
Fasting blood sugar, postprandial sugar, Hb A1c to rule out the diabetes mellitus.
But i don't think you have diabetes melitus.

You can also go for urine tests like gravity, osmolarity, serum electrolyte and calcium to rule out diabetes insipidus.
If all the tests will come with in normal range then nothing to worry about problem.
OCD can be treated by anti anxiety drug by consulting the psychiatric.
Hope this will help you
