Yeah I have it a bit but not extreme. I used to have to do the same thing on both sides of my body, like touching things stepping on the same thing with both feet etc. As I've grown older I've gotten out of the habbit since I've just said, to be short, "Screw that". It takes a while but just ignore the impulses.
Yeah, I've had it since childhood.
Mine has nothing to do with cleaning rituals, though. Just rituals in general. Example: must place left shoe in front of right... I know that it's ridiculous but I can't stop!
I can also be a hoarder (just get somebody to clean for you- that's what I do...) lol!
Yes my mother has many symptoms and I can't find a way to help her cause she does not admit it ;)
Yes I have it bad .
Do two things.
1. Go see a shrink. Get on an SSRI (Luvox, Zoloft, Prozac ETC) This will help with some of the symptoms.
2. Go find a therapist that does CBT. Cognitive Behavior therapy is the best way to beat OCD. The studies show with medication and CBT, you stand the best chance to get better.
Worked for me.
