OCD

[Pink-Floyd]

Someone Told me I had it, It never Used to be this bad, If U go to My Forum, Ull see my post about it, Ive gotten Voices in my head That Tell me to Repeat things till it sounds perfect, and I have Stairs in my house, I have to Stand On All the steps with both feet or I have to do the Same Going up then going down again, Its Getting Really annoying, I jst Forget Not to do it, and I Automatically do it all the stuff again

And Ill Be Keeping Useless trash incase it really need it, I Just Keep repeating stuff again Again, I always have to have the same bite size when eating, Im always Jittery about my weight, I always Have to Check if everythig is off, And Doors are always Closed,

I always Have to Touch A Place 2 or 4 times, And In My throat I have to Counts like i dont feel uncomforatble, And If I Have something to say about omething I Have to Say it or I feel Uncomfortable

My Teeth has always got to be brushed before i go out

Yep, sounds like it to me. I suffer from it but for me its different things likea a paranoid fear of blindness *rubs eyes* and if there is the tinies thing wrong with a computer monitor / TV Screen I just cant use it.

I know this will sound stupid but go and see you GP and get a refferal to a shrink.

Im the same with my Comnputer monitor, and all the Computer stuff, my hands can never be sweaty, the monitor has to be in the perfect place, the Sound Nob on the Speaker always has to be in the right place(Belive me, now thats annoying)

you only have ocd if you think you have ocd. Its a subconcious desire in your mind. Ocd is an easily treatable and curable personality disorder. its based on habits and breaking those habits. its not a messed up brain, thats why its just bad habits. You can fix it if you want to fix it. But if you like it, then it will never go away.

its all based on having some sort of control. and although it sounds easy to break... its really not beause the anxiety you feel is soooo insanely strong. there are only a few ways to break it... seeing an ocd specialist or meds... and meds typically wont eliminate it all. its all about knowing that you dont have control over everything but what you do have control over is the ocd. i take baby steps with mine because im not ready to face the fears so much which is what most ocd specialists will have you do... facing the fears head on. if you dont get help with it you will probably end up dealing with it your entire life which i know isnt something that anyone would want to do.

It does appear to be that you might be suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder or something on that spectrum, but only a professional qualified mental health practicioner can give you a honest correct opinion.

These voices in your head, do you hear them - as if you would hear another person talking to you like sound - rather than the internal monologue we all have which is more of a 'thinking' sound than a 'hearing' sound.

If you're 'hearing' it, and it seems as if its like a voice of someone in the room - it definatly would be a very very good idea for you to see a doctor as soon as you can as that would indicate the possibility of a psychotic disorder such as bipolar mania or schizophrenia.
