Do I have OCD?

[LeChuck]

Now, I know none of you can diagnose me, but I just wanna ask...

Do I have OCD?

Whenever I get into a repetative task, I like it. I keep on going and going and going... etc. But when I have to stop, or someone forces me away from the thing that i was doing, I feel frustrated and even sometimes upset.

Plus, I seem to have trouble concentrating. My mind wanders enormously, and I find myself unable to concentrate properly, I end up staring at walls or out windows or just not able to stay on one thing at all. Though, that's probably not OCD, just some other mental type thing.

Everyone has obsessions and compulsions to some degree. It's whether or not it's a disorder that's really a question here.

Are you able to function? Are you able to hold a job? Or are your obsessions and compulsions standing in the way of you functioning in society on a basic level.

No one here is going to be able to diagnose you. If you're concerned you should see a professional.

My guess would be that, no, it's not a disorder... at least not yet. "Frustrated" and "upset" aren't nearly strong enough words to describe forcibly being stopped from completing a task in my experience.
