What is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder? To understand this, one needs a thorough understanding of obsessions and compulsions associated with OCD, presented in this video by adult psychiatrist in Cardiff (United Kingdom), Dr. Raman Sakhuja.
Obsessions are repeated thoughts, urges, or mental images, that are intrusive, unwanted, and make more people anxious. Compulsions on the other hand, are repetitive behaviors or mental acts that the person feels driven to perform in response to an obsession. OCD manifests in various types: aggressive obsessions (fear of harm), contamination obsessions (concerns about bodily waste or environmental contamination), sexual obsessions, somatic obsessions (health concerns), cleaning or washing compulsions, checking compulsions, counting compulsions, and hoarding.
These behaviours deviate from the norm normalcy, causing distress, dysfunction or risk behaviors and collectively constitute the OCD syndrome. Understanding these aspects is crucial for recognizing and addressing the challenges faced by individuals with OCD.
