Also, I have seen a professional about my issues which to me seem like OCD, he said it was a less extreme form of it. I can say that I have no problem with this image, but once again, I'd like to see a source.

Why do people get downvoted for wanting a source? Like, sorry I won't take your meme at face value could you back it up with facts? thanks fam
OCD has varying forms of severity just line any other mental illness but a disliking of unorganized or out of pattern objects isn't OCD. It's normal as humans are hardwired to notice pattern but more specifically to look for things out of the ordinary. OCD is much more complex than id be able to explain it. Essentially someone with OCD takes normal everyday things and can't leave something out of ordinary. I remember one guy who told how he had to check his front door lock multiple times a night just because his mind wouldn't be at ease otherwise.
True, my buddy's boss had to press the lightswitch 27 times before he exit the room. It makes going to meetings and appointments harder and wasting so much time, but he would be anxious the whole time otherwise.
OCD = Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Every human has obsessions and compulsions - it's normative. We all have unwanted, intrusive thoughts sometimes. We all perform impulsive behaviours sometimes. These become OCD when they significantly disrupt normal functioning - the key is the "Disorder" part. So someone with OCD may be troubled by this picture, but being troubled by this picture doesn't mean you have OCD.
I developed OCD a few years after being raped. I was diagnosed about six months ago, and my medicine barely works but I'm too scared to tell anyone.
I am much more obsessive than compulsive. I have horrible intrusive thoughts about killing myself and others. I dream about hurting or killing my rapist/s. It's fucking awful. You don't want OCD. I still can't believe I haven't killed myself yet.
I'm a little better, actually! I really appreciate you taking the time to message me. It's lonelier in the summertime since there is nothing to motivate me to go outside, but I get by.

I noticed you haven't posted in a bit, sounds stalkerish i know but in the context of our last conversation i hope things are going well
