OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) is a debilitating condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is marked by individuals struggling with obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are intrusive, unwanted, distressing thoughts, images, or urges that cause anxiety or distress. The body’s alarm system activates, our anxiety grows, and the person wonders what that intrusive thought must have meant. Compulsions are repetitive behaviors or mental acts that a person feels compelled to do in order to relieve OCD-related anxiety or distress.
