Is it normal to feel the need to repeat things?!


Question: Is it normal to feel the need to repeat things!?
I ask the same questions over and over!.
If I rub my index finger twice, I have to rub all of my fingers twice!.
If I touch something once I always have to touch it a certain amount of times!. If I don't I can't concentrate until I give in and do it!.
It bugs me when things are sloppy and half way done!.
All blinds needs to be facing the same way, all the papers in a stack need to be neat and straight, all picture frames have to be straight or it drives me absolutely crazy!.
Is this normal or is it OCD or something!?!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Whether or not your behaviors are OCD-related has more to do with how you feel if you don't do the behaviors, rather than the behaviors themselves!. If you feel compelled to do the behaviors and feel a great deal of anxiety if you don't do them, you probably ought to see a psychiatrist for a diagnosis and some anti-anxiety medication, a therapist for some behavior modification techniques, and read about OCD!. So many people have it in one form or another, and it can be managed!.!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Probably a combination of both!. If it's bothering you, look up clinical psychologists in your area who specialize in OCD, or ask your doctor/NP and they can suggest one!. It's more about being comfortable then anything, if it interrupts your day or makes your quality of life any less than it should be, you should get some help!. If you're okay with it, then that's okay as well!. I have minor OCD, but it doesn't really bother me!. Some days are worse than others, but because it doesn't really interrupt my daily life I see no problem with leaving it alone!. Good luck! Www@Answer-Health@Com

Some times when people are stressed they experience OCD behaviours!.
But, you really should speak to your GP or a mental health worker about this before it gets worse, as you don't want it to take over your life!.
OCD can really restrict people and make life very challenging for them!.
Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
