I agree that there are different degrees of ocd. The way that my T explained it is that it has to disrupt your life to really be a disorder, a lot of people have the obsessions and compulsions without reaching the point of it becoming a disorder. If you have the disorder you could have a milder form of it or you could just not be noticing or showing all symptoms at this time. I also agree that you may find the quiz here helpful, just remember it is not a diagnosis tool but you could print the results and share them with your T so you could explore the idea in therapy.
