Obsessions and compulsions rule your life.
Everything must be just right. You find yourself constantly ordering and rearranging things in a precise way.
Sometimes, you are compulsive about checking repeatedly to ensure you have turned off the gas stove and locked the doors.
Nothing is ever clean enough. Because of a fear of germs, you must wash your hands until they feel clean, often to the point of being red and raw.
You constantly question and doubt yourself; the uncertainty is too much to bear. Intrusive thoughts won’t go away no matter how hard you try to push them out or distract yourself.
Your behavior makes life difficult.
You know that logically, it doesn’t make any sense, but that doesn’t matter. And when you cannot understand what’s happening, your world will fall apart.
You’re so embarrassed that you live this way and terrified of what others might think if they found out. So, you avoid people, places, and anything that might trigger you.
Your world keeps shrinking – and it feels hopeless.
