Understanding OCD

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a thought cycle centered around uncontrolled obsessions, often irrational, and compulsive behaviors to try and self-soothe. These two patterns of thought and behavior create a continuous cycle that can be hard to break without intervention.

Obsessions

These recurrent thoughts, urges, or images cause significant distress. Since they are resistant to rational reasoning, they can take root in your mind, even though you know they are irrational and unwanted.

Common Obsessions

Fear of contamination
Excessive concern with order, symmetry, or exactness
Unwanted aggressive or sexual thoughts

Compulsions

These repetitive behaviors often stem from obsessions as a way to try and relieve the resulting anxiety. However, they only provide temporary relief and can become all-consuming.

Common Compulsions

Excessive hand-washing or cleaning
Repeatedly checking locks, switches, or appliances
Counting, tapping, or repeating certain words/phrases

OCD does not look the same in every individual. Some people may not deal with stereotypical thought patterns but instead, struggle to set healthy boundaries with themselves and push themselves to perfection.

Signs You Need Support

When you live with OCD, it can be challenging to recognize the need for support. The desire to handle things on your own or fear of judgment may prevent you from reaching out. However, seeking help is crucial for managing symptoms and finding relief.

Here are some signs that indicate you may benefit from professional support:

An inability to control or resist obsessions and compulsions
Obsessive thoughts and behaviors take up significant time
Interference with work, school, or daily activities
Strained relationships as a result of unmanaged thought patterns

Do you need help managing your OCD? When you spot these signs on a consistent basis, it’s time to reach out for help.
