Obsessive compulsive disorder is an anxiety disorder whereby you have either obsessions or compulsions or both. Most people have both but you can have one or the other. Some people use the term Pure O OCD to refer to only having obsessions. It’s less common to have only obsessions, but it’s not separate illness or diagnosis. In this video I discuss what obsessions and compulsions look like. I also give an example of what kind of treatment you would get for OCD.
