Are your OCD symptoms present all the time ?

[unluckysadness]

I mean, do you think about OCD 100% of the time ? When you are at home, when you go outside ? When you are with people ?

I have a very specific OCD but I'm not comfortable to talk about, even here (because it's very humiliating). This OCD came after a trauma that gave me PTSD. I have other OCD more manageable like verification OCD or calculating numbers mentally.

So I just wanted to know if your OCD is present ALL the time, like a monster that never leaves you ? And is your OCD related to a trauma ?

Thanks

I'm anxious all the time. I don't eat good food and that makes me anxious. I don't think I've done well at school and that makes me anxious. I'm OCD but it's the anxiety that is with me 100%.

My ocd is always present, almost all the time every single day. It's not my main reason for being suicidal but it only makes everything so much worse for me.
