Jay21What most people describe, joke, or trivialize as OCD is nowhere near real OCD. Actual OCD is debilitating and affects quality of life.
Just like being sad isn’t always depression, being organized or particular isn’t obsessive compulsion.
Yes, I have an actual diagnosis of anxiety and OCD.
I have worked in mental health for over 25 years and know OCD sufferers and suffering very well.
Does it bother you when it is joked about and trivialize?
