Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Presentation

Monica Geller-Bing is a character from friends

Make your husband really happy and open a house cleaning service.

Now that made me almost want to cry-when she kept saying that she couldn't stop. Tell me about the "making sure the doors are locked" thing. I wonder if OCD could be a defense mechanism. If maybe certain bad things happened in that person's past, and then they developed rituals to try to feel like they had some control over what bad things happened to them and which didn't.

Yes, you should man. I have the disorder to it's wise to visit a therapist, they help out a lot. By the way you don't have to take medication, there are other ways of controlling OCD.

gmussina, me too! stupid MTV. they should have warned us! grrr now i blink my eyes really hard and move my hands back and forth a lot and, when i write, i go over the words agin and again and again. It's sad.

i to have a huge ocd problem that is really hard to deal with. if you have ever seen the show monk, i'm a little bit like him. everytime my mom sees me do something weird like that like cleaning random things, she'll call me monk... its kinda funny though

I have mild OCD. It started when I was 5 years old. It currently affects my relationships with those I love. But I can't help it.
I cannot even imagine what it's like for you. Best wishes...........

holy,i can totally relate to you. I was 1st diognosed with OCD when I was 10,I`m 28 and it has not gotten better.

I have OCD and the public at large,therapist have no idea just how severe it can be.

you can get rid of ocd. i used to have ocd but now i don't. trust me. it can go away.

Don't worry monica atleast your not as bad as me, i'am 16 now and i have had obsessive compulsive disorder since i was 5. I have not told anyone yet and i still can not find the gut to tell them. I have this feeling that its gonna become a real big deal and everyone in my family is gonna find out and laugh about it.

I'am 16 years old and i have had this disorder since i was 5.. Should i tell someone i have this disorder so i can go see a therapist? i can find enough gut, can i have some advice pl0x?

I know how you feel, i have had it since i was 5
