An anxiety disorder that stimulate reoccurring, unwanted thoughts, ideas, or sensations(obsessions). It can come in many different forms from as little as counting numbers, obsessively washing hands, turning the light on and off and many little things that the individual feels need to be repeated. Because of the way the individual thinks; the first time an action is done, there is not full satisfaction within themselves which then draws them to repeat the process until the action is completely to its full potential.
(Desperate response to Anxiety)
The cognitive behavioral model provides an explanation for what causes OCD, and what factors maintain it. Obsessions are thoughts that people learn to fear.
The Biological Model suggested that if you have OCD, your brain has difficulty turning off or ignoring impulses from this circuit.3 This, in turn, causes repetitive behaviors called compulsions and uncontrollable thoughts called obsessions.
Exposure therapy, you will be placed in situations where they are gradually exposed to their obsessions and asked to not perform the compulsions
For those resistant to be placed in a real world situation, you can be helped to visualize the scenario and experience the situation
