Have you ever found yourself thinking about how your hands aren\u2019t clean? And how washing them again and again does not satisfy you? If you have found yourself in such a scenario, then this might indicate the underlying condition of \u2018Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).\u2019 But what is OCD Behavior? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a complex concept. Let me give you another example. You are going to sleep at night. You have locked the door, dimmed the lights and have jumped in your comfortable bed. A thought shoots through your mind, that you haven\u2019t locked the door, it\u2019s still open. So, you get up, you check the door, you make sure it’s locked. Let’s imagine doing that at least 20 times through the night. Terrifying, isn\u2019t it? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 This is what having Obsessive Compulsive Disorder feels like. It starts with having repetitive thoughts, and ends at repetitive behaviors. Let\u2019s explore more about this nasty illness, and how one can overcome it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
