Do you have an obsessive-compulsive disorder?

Keeping track of yourself and your actions is the right and healthy thing to do. For example, before you leave the house, make sure you have your phone, keys and money with you. So that later when you are at a store there is no surprise at the checkout or elsewhere. But there are some people in whom control is a compulsive action.

They double-check 10 times whether the front door is closed, whether the gas is shut off. Some people have rituals. Each person has their own: count to 30 before leaving the house, say 10 compliments to their cat, etc. This behavior is called obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Feeling the line between healthy control and obsessive-compulsive disorder is very difficult. That's why we suggest you take our test to see if you have symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
