What Are The Symptoms of OCD?
September 3, 2023 | by Sravani Pathakamuri | Posted in FAQ's
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can manifest with various symptoms, which typically fall into two categories: obsessions and compulsions.
- Obsessions:
- Intrusive and repetitive thoughts, images, or urges.
- Fear of contamination, harm to oneself or others, or a need for symmetry or exactness.
- Doubts or fears about safety or morality.
- Compulsions:
- Repetitive behaviors or mental acts performed to reduce anxiety caused by obsessions.
- Examples include excessive handwashing, checking locks repeatedly, counting, or arranging objects in a specific way.
- These actions may temporarily relieve distress but are often irrational or excessive.
It’s important to note that everyone with OCD may experience a unique combination of symptoms, and the severity can vary. Diagnosis and treatment should be conducted by a mental health professional.
