OCD is short for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. It’s a relatively common mental health difficulty which includes having difficult thoughts, uncomfortable feelings, and repetitive behaviours. The behaviours are often used as a way of coping with the difficult thoughts and feelings, however in OCD this way of coping becomes unhelpful.
