DigDig, I think that OCD is a mechanism used to cope with anxiety. If everything is going smoothly you will have less anxiety and therefore, your coping mechanism of OCD will work well and you will be feeling good. If there is change, upheaval, increased insecurity, or other stressors the OCD just won't be enough to contain the anxiety. OCD is a form of anxiety. It is classified as an anxiety disorder.
When you have higher anxiety are you not able to focus well enough for the OCD?
Zloppy why don't you have a plan?
