OCD Quiz - Psychcentral

[CarolinaMom]

I didn't realize this forum was here until today. I never realized that thoughts of death, etc were OCD symptoms. I think about death constantly. I'll post that in another thread.

Here's an OCD test I found online. I scored 30. Of course, you can't necessarily use these results as a guideline. You'll need to speak to your healthcare professional for that!

scored a 14. some of it did not pertain at all but some did.

Thanks to the OP for this test link and being able to get an idea now.

I scored an 18. I am at a loss right now. I have always worried that I might have some imbalances in me but I have never sought help. I used to self-harm as well but nobody ever helped me. Years later I have finally able to break free from self-harm. At least what I would say as being healed from it, I know there are still times that it comes up. Anyways, I guess I always feared being labeled and so now I stay away from counselors. I also fear having to pay for it and going into debt. I have always been strong willed and thought that I could get myself through anything but what if I can't? Do I really need to get help? Will it really make a significance in my life?

I scored 16. It was very interesting to take. I definitely want to send this to my sister because she gets really upset if anything is out of place and it doesn't help her relationships. Mine is mostly in my mind... Self Injury, I am getting over but is that part of OCD?

Hello,

Scored an 11. Pretty low for this group, but it seems probable that I do have OCD.

I always wondered...

 

[little_lily613]

I scored 27 on the test.

I scored a 26. I have already been diagnosed with OCD and am on medication to treat it. Since beginning medication, I have greatly improved.

 

[Hello There]

I haven't been diagonosed, I just knew I had it.
anyway, I got a score of 21.
once again some questions I wasn't so sure about...
most of my obsessions don't really fit in the quiz.

I got a 25, just solidified what I already suspected. It isn't really that hard to see though.

 

[ChristsDisciple]

scored 24, is that a bad thing?!

 

[spdnet75]

I scored a 30 as well. I'm acutely aware of my OCD symptoms. Others around me are aware as well. It's just become a part of things for me and is rather secondary to my Bipolar Disorder.

I didn't realize some of the symptoms were OCD... I knew they were there just didn't knew the fell under the OCD category. I scored a 31. Does anyone know the highest you can score on here?

Have I gotten the highest on it so far? I have been diagnosed my my psychiatrist with OCD, and several other anxiety disorders I have found medication to be helpful and recently started reading a book called "Brain Lock," which I have also found helpful along with participating weekly in my anxiety group.

10. Have you worried about acting on an unwanted and senseless urge or impulse, such as physically harming a loved one, pushing a stranger in front of a bus, steering your car into oncoming traffic; inappropriate sexual contact; or poisoning dinner guests?

This is the only question I answered yes too; but of all the questions this one seemed to be the worst one to answer yes too. So anyway my score was 1.

 

[powerofprayer]

I scored a 14 although it didn't ask things like...do you "constantly" replay conversations in your head - over & over & over. Or do you have to start your prayers completely over again if your interrupted because that interruption made your prayer "wrong". Or do you always have to imagine the absolute worse case scenario in order to protect people from harm. AAAARRRRGGGG!!!!

 

[AmandaLynn1288]

I scored a 23... and that's answering those questions after being on medication! That's crazy!!

 

[SweetBella]
