There really is life after a diagnosis...be well


Is obsessive compulsive disorder a phobia?

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a behaviour. Examples include repeatedly flicking a light switch a certain number of times or avoiding stepping on the cracks between paving stones in the street. These behaviours develop within a person usually as a coping mechanism or a way of making their world safe from a real or imagined threat/danger. So OCD can be a symptom of a phobia, but is not, in itself, a phobia.

Did Shakespeare have any mental disabilities?

does it matter?? we dont judge people by if they are dissabled or pretty, we judge them by what kind of person they are. == == Not as far as we know. In fact, people have talked about how Shakespeare had a lot of medical and legal knowledge, more than an average person would at the time. This doesn't mean that he didn't have *any* mental disabilities. Most people in the world have a tiny bit of something, like narcissism or Obsessive-Compulsive disorder, or paranoia. In order for those things to be debilitating, though, they have to interfere with your life in a significant way, and as far as we know, Shakespeare didn't have anything that interfered with his life and work.
