Hello,

My OCD is mainly the obsession part. At my worst, I used to have intrusive thoughts regarding homicide and suicide that hospitalized me 4 times. I thought that I was this horrible person, but it turned out to be good old OCD, tricking my mind over and over again. I received TONS of therapy (specifically Exposure Response Prevention) and overcame the intrusive thoughts. Yay!

As far as compulsions go, I double check things such as locks, the stove, etc, to make sure they are locked or turned off. When listening to music, I have to pick a song, then quickly restart it again before I can listen to it. (2 seems to be a number I like).
