Symptoms of OCD may include (1) recurrent intrusive thoughts that cause marked distress, (2) repetitive behaviors or mental acts that lead a person to feel driven to perform in response to obsessions or to reduce distress, and (3) excessive or unreasonable obsessions or compulsions that are time consuming and interfere with a person’s normal routine. People in a relationship with someone struggling with symptoms of OCD are likely to be negatively impacted as well. A mental health counselor at Pathways can assist you in opening a door to a new way of life. Help is available, change is possible.
