i think OCD is a lot many more things.. have you been experiencing any other symptoms or major behavioural changes too?

tbh it still is best to consult a professional to get proper diagnosis and accurate information though :)

@tealPapaya5453 You raise an interesting point and question. You really do, my friend. I am really not sure. I suppose it could be a symptom of OCD. I am not a doctor. I am a former listener at 7cups, so I have listened to a few people with OCD, but you're the first to bring up language as part of the condition. It is best to talk with your doctor on this. They would know more and they have had a lot more training in this area, then I do or anyone here at 7cups, would. 7cups is an emotional care and mental health site, we cannot diagnose any one. But, after you have been diagnosed then, please come back for support if you need that. We can listen to you and try our best to support you and if we are able, to provide some helpful tips. Just so you know, we cannot give advice. Just wanted to let you know that.
