Hey, my name is Iris and I'm from Israel, so I'm sorry for all the english mistakes. Rolling Eyes

I just couldn't find a forum in Hebrew.
Anyway, I came across with this website:

and I wonder: How many checks is considered OCD? I know you can't give me a professional diagnosis, but what is your opinion?

I'm sorry for the mistakes and the trouble. Embarassed

Thanks.

It's just there so you can decide for yourself whether or not something you do is excessive and whether or not seeing a doctor would be a good idea. All the symptoms listed can be attributed to OCD. If you want an OCD test that gives you a score.. You can go here..

I'm afraid it showed what I predicted. Confused

It's okay. Don't feel bad about having a 'problem', you can work through it. The first step is recognizing there is a problem... So you're doing good. You might want to go to a doctor though, for a real diagnosis. Smile
