In this episode, we are going to discuss Checking OCD. Checking OCD is a sub-type where a person experiences intrusive thoughts, fears, or concerns (obsessions) that cause anxiety, doubt, or uncertainty and the person engages in a behavior (compulsions) called βCheckingβ to neutralize the uncomfortable feelings.
People that suffer from Checking OCD feel the need to perform compulsive checking behaviors in order to reassure themselves about their fears. Some common checking rituals include checking if certain item(s) t have been left in the right place, checking if appliances or lights are turned off, checking if emails were written correctly, and even internal checking behaviors like checking whether or not they are feeling anxiety.
Enjoy the show.
