obsesive compulsive disorder
hi, i dont know if you know about obsesive compulsive disorders but if you do then i'd really like your help.
I dont know what to do because mine is interfering with everyday life and makes me very anxious and upset.
i have the one where i wash my hands alot when making food which sounds normal but it is extreme.
the one thats the worst though is i have to say "take care, i love you" to my boyfriend alot and especially when he goes out, which sounds ok but i have to keep saying it until it feels right and make him keep saying it too, if i dont do it then i feel awful and think someone will kill him or he'll die in a car accident and it will be all my fault because i didnt say those words.
Also, if i'm in the kitchen or something i get a voice (my voice) in my head that tells me to do something like put a spoon in a certain place or put something in the bin etc or something tragic will happen to my boyfriend or another of my worst fears will happen, if i try to ignore it then my voice in my head starts screaming at me to do it and i get worried and cant decide what to do cos part of me knows bad things wont happen just because i dont do a certain thing but at the same time i darnt risk it and get myself into such a state and get bad anxiety and panic and get upset.
sorry its so long, i just really worried about my mental heath and scared i'll have to take tablets or be sectioned or something.

Hello,
First of all, your particular problem is quite common, and certainly not a condition you will be sectioned for.
I'd like to ask you a couple of questions first if I may, before I offer you further advice.
What age are you?
As far as you are aware, how long have you been feeling like this?
