i know everyones sick of these messages but does anyone have an opinion?
im really fussy with what i eat with. i have to eat with a fork and spoon with flowers on and if i cant find that fork or spoon i dont eat. i wear my earphones and you know they have a "L" for left and a "R" for right on each of the earphones i put them in my ear then take them out to make sure i have them in the right ears i keep having to check to make sure. when i was yonger i ued to have my door ajar and i was lying in bed i looked to make sure me door was still ajar and when i looked i had to count to 3 and then breathe. i cant do anything without someone with me and if i dont like soemthing ill re-arange it if anything is on the floor and i can see it in my eyeline ill move it. i hate dirt and cant touch anything dirty without gloves then i was my ahnds after. if i have to handle my brothers clothes i pick it up with two fingers then run to wash my hands afer. i hung the washing out the other day and each piece of clothing i hung out had to ahve the same colour pegs on and i spent ages looking for the same colour pegs.. when i was in primary school i got my ears pierced. but i wasnt sure my earings were still in, so like every 5 mins or so i used to touch my earing count to 3 then breathe like i used to do with my door. what i usualy do now is that if there is something in my eyeline i dont like ill move it, and keep moving it till i cant see it. i keep licking my thumb after every sentance i type ive ordered my deodrant bottles and my body sprays from smallest to largets on my dressing table. i constantly check for spiders and i know there isnt any there but is till double check over again, then when ive looked i breathe so i know ive done it right. it takes my ages to turn my phone off cause i think i havnt done it right the first time. |

i am no doc and i do not have these sort of problems,as i was reading this i thought yes you may have ocd have you tried the quiz test i have done a few and even though i read things i was suprised at how i accepted them which has given me a more calmer approach to how i am behaving at the moment not sure if this helps you but this is only my opinion and i hope you find an understanding with how you are feeling keep smiling

I AM NOT a doctor but it does sound like it. buy online self diagnosis or see your GP they can refer you to a Pdoc. Good luck to you and many many wishes of luck. I also hope you can get some support here and maybe that is all you would need! hey you would probably be the first person with OCD to be cured from Psych central online psychology, now that would be a neat success!

We have come a long way in the treatment of OCD. Please do some research and find the people nearest you who specialize in this as it is a highly specialized field due to the nature of treatment needs. OCD foundation is a good start. It is not the end of the world. There is a scale, I forget what it is called but it measures your discomfort when you can't follow through with your rituals. Memory poor. Ask me anything you like, pm me if you wish and I will try to help you find appropriate help nearest you. Good luck.

It does sound alot like ocd, I have the D, but not those symptoms, but ewerybodys different. I think you have to seek help for it as soon as possible, from those specialiced on ocd.
I my self had it for ower 6 years, and it took me 3,5years to seek help, and it isnīt untill now that I have seekt the right therapy, Cognitive Behaveyor Therapy that is, and im still waiting for it. Its proven to be the most effective therapy towards ocd. |
