Obsessive-compulsive disorder is it an addiction?
Obsessive Compulsive disorder is where a person has an obsession, which creates intruding thoughts in their minds which are uncomfortable. For example, an obsession with germs, and constant thoughts that lots of things are contaminated. The compulsion is a behaviour which is done in order to remove the obsessive thoughts, e.g. hand washing. Therefore, it is different to an addiction, yet the compulsions are very difficult to stop -which is similar to addiction, whereby the addictive behaviour is hard to stop. Addiction on the other hand may be due only to the physiological need for a chemical, such as nicotine, and does not necessarily have to be caused by an obsession, as OCD is.
