I think i might have ocd...cuz like weird things happen to me like i was sitting in my room and i coodnt concentrate on anything but washing me hands...i started shaking and i got dizzy until i washed them and this morning i was getting my deoderant out and something in my cupboard fell over and i closed the door.....i walked away but all i cood think of was fixing it and it started to drive me crazy and i had 2 fix it and like it happens all the time
Washing hands is the most common of all OCD tpe behaviours. Some people have literally scrubbed their hands raw. A symptom of OCD is never really feeling like your hands are clean and you have to wash them time and time again.
It is possible you suffer from a form of OCD but I would recommend you speak to your doctor for confirmation. It may be that they feel you should seek treatment for it, in which case you may be offered a form of therapy (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is the most common for OCD) or anti-depressents which should help suppress your anxiety.
Whatever you do, please don't worry because it's an extremely common condition and one that you CAN control with the right treatment. [ Vikki27's advice column | Ask Vikki27 A Question ]

People do those kind of things everyday. unless i takes up an hour or more of your day then doctors probly will not diagnose you with Ocd. You ask a doctor about it tho if it will make you feel better. [ babiigirl's advice column | Ask babiigirl A Question ]
jammy12 answered Wednesday March 22 2006, 9:23 pm: This is like a regular thing with people. It happens to me often...esp wen I jus didn't put it bac and I don't like how it looks. Anyway you probably have a attention span problem but not OCD. I kinda had OCD wen I was small and well I got over it. It's like wen u count stuff and wen u do things repeatedly..like touch somethign and count the times you do it. [ jammy12's advice column | Ask jammy12 A Question ]

If these feelings related to OCD keep occuring, I would deffinatly suggest going to someone about it. Like a doctor or a parent. Even your school nurse!
