Answers:
Yes, I have it. It sucks sometimes, but mine has progressively gotten better over the years.When I was younger(elementary school/middle.?highschool) I used to have it with cleaning and counting, now I just take like hour long showers and am really into routines. OCD is driven by anxiety, so when you are anxious your OCD tends to worsen. It is curable. You just have to gain control over it and not let it take over your life. It is way easier said than done! Mine hasn't completely gone away, but it has about 80%, which is a dramatic improvement! Just set small goals each day and you will gradually get better!

I have borderline OCD. i do not feel the need to perform rituals like some OCDer's do but in a sense the way i have found to cope with it is everybody has their quirks. If your daily life is affected you might should talk with your doctor and he can suggest either a therapist or medications. Paxil or Paroxetine is prescribed for OCD. The medication will not make the OCD go away but help with the anxiety that results from the disorder. Good Luck. . . but please remember, we all have our quirks.Health Question & Answer
