    • Repetitive behaviors or mental acts performed to alleviate distress caused by obsessions
    • Excessive handwashing, cleaning, or checking rituals

Types of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Contamination Obsessions and Cleaning Compulsions:

Individuals with this type of OCD experience intense fears of contamination by germs, dirt, or harmful substances. They engage in excessive cleaning, handwashing, or avoidance behaviors to reduce anxiety.

Checking Obsessions and Compulsions

This type involves persistent doubts and fears, leading to repetitive checking behaviors. Common concerns include checking locks, appliances, or personal belongings to prevent harm or accidents.

Symmetry and Ordering Obsessions and Compulsions

Individuals with this subtype obsessively focus on achieving perfect symmetry, balance, or specific arrangements of objects. They engage in repetitive behaviors or rituals to ensure things are arranged “just right.”

Intrusive and Taboo Obsessions

These obsessions involve disturbing and intrusive thoughts or mental images related to taboo or forbidden subjects, such as aggression, sexual themes, or blasphemy. Individuals may perform mental rituals or seek reassurance to neutralize these distressing thoughts.

Hoarding Disorder

Hoarding is characterized by an excessive and persistent difficulty discarding possessions, regardless of their actual value. Individuals may have strong emotional attachments to items and experience distress when attempting to declutter or dispose of them.
