Hi there,

I have never spoken to any anyone about this before but I think I am at a stage where I am ready to be open about it.

I am unsure if this is OCD but any suggestions as to what this condition may be classified as would be helpful!

Ever since childhood, I have had these habits and rituals with my body. In the past, when I was younger especially, I needed to ...

My step-mother is generally a sweet, wonderful person. At other times, she seems extremely neurotic, mean, and psychotic. She's insane about things being brought into the house.

Hi all!
Just trying to get some feedback from actual OCD sufferers who have "been there" on how to handle/help a family member who is having some pretty severe OCD-related mental issues and is 38 weeks pregnant at the moment. If anyone has the patience to read through this and offer any advice, I would appreciate it greatly. My entire family is at our wit's end.
The woman is my cousin, she is 40 years ...

The worst of the bunch is 13 followed by 26 and 46. To a lesser extent also the ...
