[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for the info.  Did you really tell everyone you were diagnosed with OCD?  I haven't told anyone except my husband.  I can't imagine telling other people!  I guess that's part of my OCD perfectionism.

For examples of OCD -- at my worst, I would obsess that there was going to be a fire or that someone was going to break into the house, and I would check the locks and stove/oven several times.  If I got into bed and couldn't remember if I had checked them (or even if I thought I probably had but wasn't sure), I would have to ask my husband for verification that they probably weren't on/open, or I had to go downstairs.  I wouldn't check more than a few times, but it was definitely a compulsion.

Most of my obsessions are fears of things happening -- like being responsible for something terrible happening to someone I love, etc.

PP, did you wean off the meds?  I don't feel like a zombie.  I actually feel really happy now, but I'm having a bit of trouble coping with the fact that I have OCD and would love to be without meds.[/quote]
