I think I have OCD, what do I do?!
Question: I think I have OCD, what do I do!?
So I read about the symptoms:
* Fear of contamination with dirt, germs, or poisons
* Fear of having a serious illness
* Fear that one's actions hurt other people or cause bad things to happen
* Inappropriate sexual and aggressive thoughts and images
* Need for symmetry, order, or exactness
I basically have all of these things, although they generally don't affect me like the people I see on television (people who have to door/close a door 3 times before being okay)!.
Should I do anything about it!? Or just go with the flow!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

People of OCD *are* fully aware of their peculair behaviour!. I don't see anything alarming in your description of your fears and thoughts as most of the population have the same!.
Have you created any "rituals" that calm you anxiety!? Have your "strange" fears and thoughts created any problems with your life or interaction with others!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
