yes, i have had it for awhile. it's utterly horrible and consuming of the most important part of yourself--your faith. it hurts to pray because a little voice in your head will say something blasphemous or you will have to repeat and beg God for forgiveness 800 times before it feels ok again when in reality he heard you the first time. it really really sucks having this OCD, for me it developed after having regular hand-washing OCD. i guess OCD just changes over time, you can never really shake it.
Religious OCD
i have ocd, and no milk doesnt cause it.......the only thing i can think of for u to ask that question is by watching monk (my fave show!) who has a fear of milk, but no, it does not cause ocd.
OCD, commonly known as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, cannot be diagnosed by blood samples or similar testing. Mental health professionals, such as psychologists and psychiatrists and those who work with them, diagnose OCD by a structured clinical interview to determine whether the symptoms are consistent with OCD behavior. OCD traits include obsessive thoughts and ideas that cause major distress. These thoughts are often inked to doubts a need for order and sexual and religious images.
Ritualistic behavior can be a symptom of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), but not all ritualistic behaviors indicate OCD. OCD involves intrusive thoughts (obsessions) that lead to repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) performed to reduce anxiety. Rituals can also occur in other contexts, such as cultural or religious practices, without being linked to a mental health disorder. It's important to consider the context and impact of the behaviors to determine if they are related to OCD.
The best thing to do is to take your child to a psyciatrist to see if he does. Also, go get some books from your local library. Talking to people with OCD may help you as well.
a lot of people (i hav ocd)
He doesn't really have OCD
Yes. I was watching a show about OCD, and one of the interviewers had OCD towards her family, thinking they were "contaminated."
Some people just enjoy washing their hair and have a need to have it clean. If you see the same thing happening with other things though, then I would maybe check with your doctor to see if you might have some kind of OCD.
NO! that is OCD
OCD. You just have OCD.
