Should you be experiencing any one or a number of these symptoms, you should seek professional advice immediately.

The disorder is distinguished by the affected person repeatedly performing tasks that are time consuming or may cause significant distress or abuse. These obsessions are constant thoughts or impulses that a person experiences, and provoke bouts of anxiety or stress. The sufferer is unable to control his thoughts and his mind constantly dwells on an obsessive issue.
Common obsessions include, personal health concerns, pedantic behavior, nagging thoughts of forgetfulness, aggressive urges and sexual fantasies.
