Understanding Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Obsessive-compulsive disorder, or OCD, involves recurring, unwanted thoughts or urges called obsessions and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals called compulsions. These symptoms can become time-consuming, cause significant distress, and interfere with school, work, relationships, and everyday activities.
Common symptoms may include:
- Fear of germs or contamination
- Repeated doubts or unwanted thoughts
- A need for order, symmetry, or exactness
- Excessive cleaning or handwashing
- Repeatedly checking locks, appliances, or other items
- Counting, arranging, or repeating certain actions
