Do I Have OCD? answer maturely please?!


Question: Do I Have OCD!? answer maturely please!?
as I hit my early teen years (IM 19 NOW) Ive noticed small little things i do that may have lead me to think i have OCD its not severe or anything but i just wanted some ones opinion, for example!.!.!.

when i go to restaurants i always clean the table like i put plates on top of plates in the right size order i cant stand to see the table dirty so i give it a small clean up!.

if something is not a certain color or if somethings slanted i always have to straighten!. for example i got my nails done about a week ago and i noticed one of my nails were not straight and i had like a total panic attack just because it wasn't straight!.

those are only 2 a few things i do but i freak out if something not the color i want it or the way i want it im not spoil is that its just not "perfect"

like i said this inst like a compulsive things its not severe its mild!.

Answers:
If you feel that it is a major problem that is preventing you from living a normal life, go talk to a professional about it for an accurate diagnosis!. I pre-bus tables for the server when I am out eating, too (I bused tables for a while, so I know what it's like)!. We all have our own little nutty quirks, to a point, things that drive us nuts!. It all just matters how severely it disrupts your life!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think it's OCD, but there's obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, which is milder!. The question is, do these behaviours negatively affect your life!? Do they prevent you from doing things you want to do!? Do they get in the way of relationships!? If you think it's a problem, go get a medical opinion, maybe a few sessions with a counselor can help you feel like you can let some of these little quirks go!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If it is causing significant disturbances and stress to your everyday life, then you should see a therapist, yes!. But from what you've written, it seems like you simply just have some quirky hang-ups!. Don't get too upset about it, you seem pretty fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think everyone is in their own little way!. No worrys :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
