SPELLING ERROR IN DONATION SHOP

Just to explain OCD better:

We all have unwelcome "intrusive" thoughts ("Am I going to get Ebola?", "If I don't staple this paper, will I get fired?", etc.).

People with OCD have trouble dismissing these thoughts, and instead they become over-important and obsessional.
( OCD: "Gosh, I really am going to get Ebola?" vs Normal: "Nah, I'm not in any real danger")

They overestimate the threat of these thoughts and/or feel responsible for any harm implied by these thoughts.
("I'm really going to get fired if I don't staple this paper")

They therefore feel compelled to take action to counter the threats and control the thoughts.
("I'm going to wash my hands three times everyday." or "I'm going to staple this paper perfectly, so I won't get fired")

Therefore, OCD or compulsive "rituals" are attempts to control intrusive thoughts.

And this does not limit to people with OCD. OCD is just a way of labeling people who can't control intrusive thoughts, and result to the method above. This is also really similar to paranoia.

Wikipediais bullsh** but I still agree with you lol

 

I kinda agree with this. My best friends little brother has OCD and anxiety. Sure, errors annoy so so so much. Lots of things annoy me, but I'm sure its not just annoyance. My friends brother, he gets the same problems as me... I am not diagnosed, but I do have OCD. Lots of people probably do, even if its minor. I do not have anxiety though, I'm not sure why I'm saying this all But hey! You learned a little more about me

Everyone that has been saying "saying OCD is bad;" it's only a joke. My personality is just for everything to be perfect, and when I see something like that, it just really annoys me.

No need to prove me wrong and give me the definition of OCD. Keep it somewhere else please.
