Out of all the mental disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (the technical jargon for OCD) is the most common one. People suffering from this disorder are basically obsessed with a certain element in their life but it’s more commonly cleanliness-related. Before we discuss the precautions one should take while living with a person having OCD, let us throw some light on this peculiar disorder. A person having OCD constantly produces thoughts and images of different things constantly. They are unable to control their thought process and perform certain acts repeatedly like washing their hands, looking for their wallets, making sure the door is locked and more. The most common OCD is generally related to fear of germs and dirt. And if you are living with a person who has OCD, you obviously have a very clean environment but it can get a little annoying too. All because, this person is controlled by OCD. Here’s how they probably function!
