In Response To: 3 Years and still sick. (Bethany)

Hey my names Kelly and I'm 14 years old.I know what your feeling, but I've only had OCD for a year now and I am just regonizing it as OCD. However, I do not have it with dirt and germs, my OCD is with having everything organized and symettrical and perfect. I also have to rip everything up before I throw it out, if I don't I'm scared I am going to get hurt or someone is going to get me and attack me. Yeah it sounds stupid, but I know how you feel. My friends know I have it and my parents do to but they sometimes make fun of me because I can seem stupid with the things I do. Like I will get up in the middle of class to turn a pair of scissors because they are turned the wrong way. It's embarrassing but I get this feeling if I don't then it might be my fault that someone gets hurt. Maybe a residental treatman center would be good for you, but have you tried a theripist or someone first? I think if I went to a residental place that I would become worse because I would get stressed out there, from being away from home and when I'm stress I get worse. Well I hope I helped you at least a little!
