What is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder?
OCD is typically a lifelong or chronic disorder, albeit with time, symptoms may sporadically recur. With obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), one can experience undesirable thoughts and feelings on a regular basis (obsessions), which push you to engage in repetitive actions or compulsions.
Obsessions and compulsions can happen to anyone at some point in their life. For instance, it is customary to periodically check the stove and the locks. OCD, however, is more severe. It could occupy several hours of a person's day.
Repetitive activities can seriously hinder everyday duties and social relationships, but with proper treatment, individuals living with OCD can lead a balanced and fulfilling life.
