Understanding OCD
OCD manifests uniquely across individuals, yet it typically includes certain shared thought patterns and behaviors. Those with OCD experience persistent, uncontrollable thoughts or sensations (obsessions), leading to repetitive behaviors (compulsions). These compulsions, often carried out in response to the obsessions, can significantly disrupt daily life.
Recognizing the Symptoms
Common obsessions in OCD include a preoccupation with exactness, unwelcome thoughts or mental images, and fears of contamination. Common compulsions might involve excessive cleanliness, meticulous organization, and habitual counting. While avoiding these compulsions can lead to distress, individuals with OCD often feel a compelling need to perform these actions, despite understanding their irrational nature.
Diagnosis at ACAPSTX
At ACAPSTX, we approach potential OCD symptoms with a comprehensive assessment, inquiring about your thoughts, behaviors, and their impact on your life. Our diagnosis process adheres to the latest criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), ensuring a precise and thorough understanding of your condition.
Tailored OCD Management
Following a diagnosis, our team devises a personalized treatment plan aimed at managing and reducing the influence of OCD on your daily activities.
