Regarding possible OCD

2022-01-24 05:58:30
I think I might be suffering from OCD. I have had problems since I was 12 yrs old but didn't pay much attention. Some of  them are like (repeating words and sentences constantly, checking doors and documents upto a point where I become completely exhausted and delirious, even checking over and over). After all this I have managed myself through ERP. Perhaps it got worse from lockdown. My current compulsions  are constantly checking petrol meter and speedometer, checking door many times while I'm bathing and my biggest problem is that I DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I SEE...like for example, I'm watching a LIVE match but I would doubt it. "Is it really live?" "Am I watching repeat telecast?" This is absolutely crazy because it's written live on television. This might sound stupid but I suffer a lot and get very anxious and my compulsions drive me crazy. Somedays I'm okay, somedays are terrible. I became normal in the midst of last year but it has come back again to haunt me. What should I do?

OCD has a waxing and waning course. Since you are only on therapy and still symptomatic, you need to start meds after thorough screening.
