What is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is an chroni anxiety disorder characterized by thoughts (obsessions) or actions (compulsions) that are repetitive, distressing, and intrusive. OCD suffers usually know that their compulsions are unreasonable or irrational, but they serve to alleviate their anxiety from their obsessive thoughts. Unfortunately these rituals are compulsions which the individual struggles to control along with the intrusive disturbing negative thoughts. Often, the logic of someone with OCD will appear superstitious, such as an insistence in walking in a certain pattern. OCD sufferers may obsessively clean personal items or hands or constantly check locks, stoves, or light switches.
Some suffers can experience obsessions without compulsions and vice versa.
Anxiety and OCD - Why trying to overcome your OCD can increase your symptoms
Once the sufferer has carried out their compulsion(s) they gain temporary relief from their anxiety until the negative thoughts come back and the whole ritual starts again. The OCD sufferer will experience severe anxiety if they do not complete their compulsion, believing that something terrible will happen. This only adds to their anxieties and can lead to panic attacks.
OCD suffers know their obsessions and compulsions are totally irrational however they are powerless to stop them. Even trying to stop these obsessions and compulsions can increase the OCD sufferers anxiety levels further. I am sure those of you reading this now, have tried extremely hard on many occasion to overcome this debilitating illness but given up in vain as your anxiety rises intensifying the OCD symptoms. A vicious cycle indeed.
