I don't know if this is ocd, or what is wrong with me

Well I don't know how to start with this, but here we go. Well from childhood, I find when someone has a pimple in their face to be disguising, like a dark spot in their face, if I found that someone is having pimples I won't go near them, talk to them, when ever i see them, I will get thoughts of disgust. I don't know why. Also, for example, when someone says they suffered from diarrhea in the last month, I will suddenly imagine what they looked like in that situation and will feel disguised and I will stop talking to them. like when I go near them , I will get the images of how they will look then, with a feeling of disgust, I will stay away from them , and won't talk to them until I forget about those things. same for me, If i have just one pimple, I will find myself disguising, and will pick it out asap. I hate if there is some dark spot or something like some imperfection in the perfect face. I don't know, also when someone has warts in their face, I will get an intense feeling of disgust. I don't know if I also have fear of holes, trypophobia, like I remember getting goosebumps along with fear just if I see the patterns in the honeycomb. I don't know what is wrong with me and any advice would be appreciated.

When it comes to anxiety in OCD,
The thought pattern circulates as such,

Intrusive thoughts > Anxiety around the thoughts > Compulsions (things you do to ease it)> Relief.

Relief is only temporary, but you might have a phobia surrounding bodily functions. Like diarrhea, pimples, urination, eczema (perhaps).

If it interferes with your life, seek therapy or psychology.

In the meantime, if you relate to the OCD cycle, google up on it to get more insight on the disorder.
