OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder


People with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) suffer from repetitive and unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and/or perform compulsive rituals which seem to be beyond control. Hand washing, counting, checking, or cleaning is done to prevent or cope with obsessive thoughts. Left untreated, obsessions and rituals rarely disappear and often may severely debilitate a sufferer’s life. OCD is often a chronic, relapsing illness best treated by behavior therapy and medication.
