Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder, more specifically, an anxiety disorder.

What scares you the most about having ocd?
For me its feeling as if i could loose it at anytime, like my mind would fracture or something, and i would be lost, stuck in a mental institute somewhere.
Having fears is the biggest part of ocd, so i thought if we talked about it we could gain strength from eachother, and work towards not being afraid and always stuck in a cycle of what ifs.

i fear the loss of cotrol if my ocd goes way. I had control taken from me at a young age and this is how i control my life. im scared to let it go. Control means a lot to me. but only control over myself. i hate the thought of controling others.
