Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder that affects about 1-2% of the population!. People with OCD experience both obsessions and compulsions!.
* Obsessions are unwanted and disturbing thoughts, images, or impulses that suddenly pop into the mind and cause a great deal of anxiety or distress!.
* Compulsions are deliberate behaviours (e!.g!. washing, checking, ordering) or mental acts (e!.g!. praying, counting, repeating phrases) that are carried out to reduce the anxiety caused by the obsessions!.
