OCD Treatment
Obsessive Thinking? Compulsive and repetitive behavior?
Your Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) symptoms are unique to you. You may experience milder symptoms, spending about 1 or 2 hours daily on intrusive thoughts or performing compulsions to find ease. On the other hand, obsessions and compulsions may be almost constant, severely impacting your daily functioning.
It doesn’t have to be like that. You can learn to let go of unwanted thoughts and urges through skilled treatments—and the right help.
Signs of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
You may experience obsessive ideas and compulsive behaviors as a person with OCD. They can take up time, cause you to avoid triggers, and cause great distress in your life when you’re not able to act on them. Do you recognize these signs?
Obsessions:
- Intrusive, unwanted thoughts, images, or urges
- Fears of contamination, harm, or a need for order, certainty, and symmetry
- Can be perceived as real, causing significant distress
Compulsions
- Repetitive behaviors or mental acts aimed at reducing obsession-induced stress
- Excessive washing, cleaning, counting, or checking
- Provide temporary relief but perpetuate a cycle of anxiety and compulsive behavior
