OCD and getting angry for no reason

Question

Asked for Female, 18 Years

I'm suffering from Arithmomania.Mostly I count letters in a sentence and make a sequence of 3 and group them.I have 2 photoframes in my house and if 1 is tilted I get so angry and just stare at that frame until the distance between them is constant. Where ever I go I just count. My anger is always out of control. I feel someone else is controlling me. And so I have lost many people in my life which makes me depressed. I count,arrange things & twirl my hair a lot. Is my anger related to OCD??

I understand your distressful situation. You seem to be suffering from ocd symptoms including counting and symmetry obsessions, leading onto depression causing anger. However more clarity is needed regarding your problem. Information regarding your sleep, hunger, energy levels and concentration at whatever you do would be more helpful to decide on the severity of your condition. Don't worry it is not your fault, it is the hormonal and chemical fluctuations in your brain which is taking a toll on your mental health. It is easily manageable with appropriate treatment, so that dysfunction due to the same can be reduced and your quality of life will improve. Some therapy sessions and if needed medical help might be useful for you. I would also be more than happy to help you with that if you are looking for online assistance. Discussions will be held confidential. You can directly consult with me through Practo as needed. Online chat consultation is also available.
