<p>...Because I repeatedly have thoughts that are crazy and not like myself (weird thoughts about opposite sex--I am not straight--that are disturbing,) weird worries that take years to get rid of, have to erase and rewrite things like 10 times or I go insane, spin around on the platform between two stair sets or else I can't live, land on my right foot when landing on the floor from the steps...among many other things...</p>
<p>Does this sound very OCD like?</p>
<p>I think it may be something more than OCD. You should seek help. And I am serious. Are you taking any illegal drugs?</p>
<p>hum...you need to check yourself into a clinic</p>
<p>I could give you a ridiculous rant, but I won't. You don't have OCD.</p>
<p>Could be but get your consultation elsewhere.</p>

<p>It sounds like typical OCD symptoms. I have it, and so does my sister. I've been taking a drug called Paxil for it for over three years now. I'm never completely free of OCD, but I'm a damn sight better. The things I used to worry about, obsess over until I was sick, my daily "rituals" (believe it or not, I used to do the stair thing as well!)... gone, pretty much. I can actually laugh about it these days.</p>
<p>Just schedule an appointment with your doctor, honestly tell him/her what you're experiencing (they hear it more than you might think), and they'll diagnose it. OCD is very common and highly treatable. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>No drugs, I just took a test that my mom gave me and it said I was like 90% OCDer...and I NEVER suspected it. hmm.</p>
<p>What is OCD? I hear this term being used a lot.</p>
<p>^Seriously? Obsessive Compusive Disorder.</p>
<p>It sounds like OCD to me; very treatable, but get professional help</p>
<p>OCD is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
OCD is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

<p>And no I am not actually serious about what I just typed--I'm not THAT ocd haha...usually</p>
<p>Maybe. But if you like who you are and it hasn't hurt your ability to function in real life, then you don't have a problem.</p>
<p>(If it ain't broken, don't fix it!)</p>
<p>It is starting to...I can't hang out with friends without feeling reallyyyy anxious all the time.</p>
