The public perception of OCD is of someone who is excessively neat and tidy. It does make me a bit cross when people say 'I'm a little bit OCD' when what they mean is they don't like mess. OCD takes so many forms, and if it causes you distress, it's usually OCD. I hope things get better for you, and if you want to tell us more there are plenty of people here to respond and offer sympathy.
