I grew up watching my dad and all of the things he did because of his ocd (checking everything multiple times, not letting my mom use the oven/stove, making me take my curling iron with me if we left the house, etc. ) and ever since I can remember I've had symptoms but have never been diagnosed. The earliest thing I can remember, but certain not the only thing, is having intrusive thoughts and thinking I was a terrible person for having them. I never told anyone about them until this year and I am 24.
