I’m new to this community and I haven’t been diagnosed because I haven’t went to the doctor about it but I think I’ve been having ocd since a kid. I remember me getting bad thoughts and urges in my head repeatedly. Also, I remember me blinking and raising my eyebrows because I had the urge too and i still to it today (I’m 17). I remember me having to restart my walking if I wasn’t walking “right”. Theres certain stuff I can’t touch because it makes me go crazy. The thought of towels going in my ear makes me cringe and a whole bunch of other stuff that doesn’t make sense. I remember me having to bite my shirt but the shirt had to touch the back of my teeth for me to be “satisfied”. There’s a whole bunch of stuff but if I said everything it would be to long. I tried to make this make sense as best as I could.

Welcome to the forum. Can you talk to a doctor about this? It sounds very much like OCD but you should get a diagnosis. If these thoughts are causing you a lot of distress there are effective therapies and possibly medication that can help you deal with them. There are lots of ways to get help and support these days — don’t be reluctant or embarrassed to seek them out.
I would like to welcome you to the OCD Support Network.
We are here to offer support, help, encouragement to each other.
We are battling OCD together.
I hope you can get proper treatment for OCD.
Hoping you will feel better soon.
