Hi
I was told by a psychiatrist last year that i have OCD, I do lots of things, worring about things being symmetrical, i can't open doors with my right hand, people have to walk on my left, counting things in my head, repeating sentences/songs in my head, unwanted thoughs, the list goes on... I don't think it completely takes over my life but there are lots of little things that I do on a day to day basis.
What I'm wondering is if OCD can cause me to get scared of doing certain things..... For example I was so terrified of going in to college and registering last september that I haven't done it and now I'm out of college...even my parents don't know about this. All i had to do was register and i was so scared that i ended up not going. I just moved apartment and I had to move the last of my things to my new place a month ago and i didn't.Now the landlady found out my family's number and have complained to them about it and I'm really scared of going over to get my things. I switched off my phone cos I'm scared of being contacted about it. I'm scared to talk about these things to anyone, my closest friends don't know anything about the things that worry me because i feel like if i talk about them it'll make things get worse, or that it's just bad to talk about bad things like that. Things like this happen me all the time and I don't tell anyone about it and I end up having a panic attack like had today.....
Is this to do with my OCD or is this something else?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
