🧠 Understanding OCD & Related Disorders
Comprehensive Neurological Care
You Are Not Alone — Help is Available
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition where a person experiences unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and feels the urge to perform certain actions (compulsions) repeatedly to reduce anxiety.
These thoughts and behaviors are not under voluntary control and can disrupt daily life — but OCD is treatable.
Common Signs of OCD:
- Repeated handwashing or cleaning
- Constant checking (doors, appliances, locks)
- Fear of contamination, illness, or harm
- Need for things to be symmetrical or “just right”
- Counting, tapping, or repeating certain actions
- Mental rituals to "neutralize" thoughts
Other Related Conditions:
- Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) – Obsession with imagined flaws in appearance
- Hoarding Disorder – Difficulty discarding items, regardless of value
- Trichotillomania – Repeated hair-pulling
- Excoriation (Skin-Picking) Disorder
- Health-related OCD (Hypochondriasis)
Why Does OCD Happen?
- Brain chemical imbalances (especially serotonin)
- Family history or genetics
- Anxiety or past trauma
- Personality traits like perfectionism
