Do I have OCD because I have these weird rituals? ?!
Question: Do I have OCD because I have these weird rituals!? !?
I give my grandparents and boyfriend 2 or 4 hugs whenever I'm saying bye!. I can't only have 1!. And the ring I always wear has to be facing me( like the letters) because I think it means god is facing me!. I also have to take either 8 big sips of a drink or 32 little ones!. And when I drink out of a water fountain I have to have either 5 or 10 sips!. I do these things because I'm scared if I don't god will punish me by taking my grandparents or boyfriend away by causing them to die or something bad happen to them!.

You'd have to talk to a doctor for an actual diagnosis, and I'm not a doctor (!), but what you're describing DOES sound like OCD!.
A lot of people have "weird rituals", but the rituals themselves don't constitute OCD (or anything else) !.!.!. it's the thinking/fears behind the rituals that are the problem!. Your fears are irrational, and you seem to recognize that they are!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think you should watch True Life: I have OCD because it explains what OCD is!. You don't have the same rituals as them but you do have reasons and beliefs of what might happen if you don't do the rituals just like the people on the show!.There was one guy that had to kiss his girlfriend until it felt right, kinda like you and the hugs!. You should really see a doctor if you think you might have it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Definitely!. My dad is prone to OCD but he doesn't let him control him!. Why would God want to punish you or your family if you don't take 8 big sips of water!. Do you have salvation!? I mean did you have the point where you knew Jesus was Lord and Savior!. God wants to help you with this problem but you have to give your life to him!. I pray that God will do a miracle in your life and comfort you!. He wants all you and your family to be saved as he loves all of you and wishes none to perish!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
