Okay, I'm 13 and I've known that I have OCD for about a year now... I REALLY don't want to talk to someone in therapy. Actually, hardly anyone knows that I actually do have OCD, and I don't think even my parents have noticed. I have random urges to repeat words sometimes, and that gets really annoying. I have little things that I always have to do, like tap certain doorknobs, or turn off a light 3 times, or make sure that i've tapped a certain painting on my wall. I've also read on multiple internet sources that OCD and other anxiety disorders can cause mild depression, which I think I might have. What I'm wondering is what will happen if i just try to STOP all these habits? I've tried stopping a couple times before, and my mind just starts obsessing over them for a while. But wouldn't my mind just go kinda wacko if I just stopped all the habits and then I kept obsessing over all the things I didn't tap, or check, or whatever?
