Hi everybody,
I've never posted on this before, but it's been bothering me for awhile, so I would like a second opinion. It's hard to describe, but for about a year I've had this thing. Like, I'll be writing and I'll write a letter "wrong", meaning I won't like how it looks and so I'll erase it and write it again. Sometimes I'll write it over and over until I get it looking how I want it. That's one example. Another is that sometimes I'll get a feeling that something bad will happen if I don't do something a certain number of times. Like, my mind will think "if you don't arrange these objects right, something will happen to your mom". I know this isn't true, but it's still there. I can usually ignore it and the feeling will pass, but the feeling is pretty strong at first. I asked my T about this, she said it's more than likely just tendencies of OCD rather than an actual disorder, and that my pdoc might rule it out as time goes on if it gets better. I hope this all makes sense. Any opinions?
