Many people do overcome OCD, but it isn't an instant fix and it isn't a cure. It's a matter of learning to get by and enjoy life and the things in life that you value. So don't feel a failure or that there must be something wrong with you that you are still being bombarded by these ugly thoughts.
Having OCD doesn't make you crazy, and as for weird, well, it does make us do some weird things! But everyone has weird thoughts, and even horrible violent thoughts, and the difference with them is that they don't pay these thoughts any attention. It's OCD that makes us give these thoughts the attention that they really do not deserve, and attach importance to them that they really do not have.
I do know just how it feels, and it's difficult to ignore the thoughts, but the more you push them away the more they come back. Ignoring them makes them fed up and they go away because they don't get any attention. Easier said than done, I know, but remember that the very fact that these thoughts are so upsetting is proof that you would never do anything like that.
