Hey! If you don't know if you have OCD or not definitely go to someone to get diagnosed. Once you know then you can take the needed steps to try to live with it better. Anxiety is really awful it makes someone afraid of everything in this world. It's no fun. Just from this post, I can tell that you are a very loving and likable person. You are not crazy! If you ever need to talk, reach out! I'd be happy to try and talk you through it.

You are not crazy! It definitely sounds like OCD. Go get help so that you can get better and love the life that you deserve to live. I know it’s scary to go get help but you must seek a specialist who knows about OCD and anxiety. My best wishes to you.

Hello there,

We would highly recommend contacting a licensed professional to determine if you have OCD or not. This is the best way to tackle your specific symptoms and begin a treatment plan which suits your individual needs.

To search for a licensed provider, you may use the IOCDF Resource Directory: iocdf.org/finding-help/
