Experiencing These Symptoms? You Might Have OCD. Get Evaluated Today!

OCD can present with a range of symptoms. If you are experiencing any of the following, it’s important to seek professional evaluation:

What Can Cause OCD?

Family History: Having a close family member with OCD increases your risk of developing the condition. Genetics play a significant role, though having a relative with OCD does not guarantee you will develop it.

Environmental Factors: High stress or traumatic events, such as a significant loss or abuse, can trigger OCD symptoms in predisposed individuals. Cultural attitudes towards cleanliness and orderliness can also contribute to OCD symptoms.

Biological Differences: Research suggests that people with OCD may have differences in brain structure and function contributing to the disorder. Some brain structures that are associated with OCD include networks in the Basal Ganglia, Anterior Cingulate Cortex, and the Orbitofrontal Cortex.

Co-existing Mental Health Conditions: Conditions like depression or anxiety can complicate OCD, making symptoms more challenging to manage.
Substance Abuse: The misuse of drugs or alcohol can exacerbate OCD symptoms and complicate treatment.

Obsession vs. Compulsion: What Is the Difference?

Obsessions: Obsessions are unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images, or urges that cause significant anxiety or distress. These thoughts are persistent and often feel uncontrollable. Common obsessions include:

  • Fear of contamination by germs or dirt
  • Unwanted aggressive thoughts or fears of harming oneself or others
  • Intrusive sexual or taboo thoughts
  • Need for symmetry or exactness
  • Excessive doubts or fear of making a mistake

Compulsions: Compulsions are repetitive behaviors or mental acts that a person feels driven to perform in response to an obsession or according to strict rules. These behaviors are aimed at reducing the distress caused by obsessions or preventing a feared event, but they are often not realistically connected to the event or are excessive. Common compulsions include:

  • Excessive hand washing or cleaning
  • Repeatedly checking locks, appliances, or assignments
  • Counting, tapping, or repeating certain words or actions
  • Arranging items in a particular, precise way
    Seeking reassurance or performing rituals to ward off harm


Obsessions create anxiety, and compulsions are the actions taken to try to relieve that anxiety. If you are experiencing some of these symptoms, our providers can conduct a thorough evaluation to ensure an accurate diagnosis and the most effective treatment plan for you.
