Where can I check to see if I have OCD? .......when your only 13?!


Question: I would recommend seeing a psychiatrist to give you a formal diagnosis if you believe you may be suffering with it. Also you can complete a self-test, found here:

Generally a Psychiatrist can rule things out like that.

I had the same problem when I was about 12-13. I used to close doors until they sounded just right, then had to get my hand off the knob perfectly, so the metal didn't clang at all. So sometimes, when i was about to go to sleep, I'd end up opening and closing my door about 20 times before my dad came in and closed it for me. I also had to do other small things, like shake my leg a certain number of times, and tell the truth, because if i didnt, I'd feel the anxious feeling. It went away when I was fourteen, because I just kept telling myself stuff like "I swear to god that's the last time I'm going to do that", and it worked.

I know it was only a little OCD, but just get it checked out in a little bit, and wait it out
