Anyone get these symptoms? - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Message Board

yfguitarist · 06-01-2005, 03:32 PM

I posted this in the schizophrenia section and someone said these were common of people with OCD (I already think that I have OCD, i'm not going to talk about my OCD symptoms in here).

-urge to kill, i'll pick up a knife or be driving on the road and get excited and feel vertigo(?), but i know i wouldn't do anything so that's not a problem. i fantasize about real violent stuff quite a bit. sometimes i'll be disgusted by people that do these things and these actions but other times i'll be the complete opposite
-no guilt whatsoever (i'm a christian so i pray for forgiveness because i know it's wrong), no crying
-sudden chills
-feelings of vertigo, i think that's what it's called. where i feel like i'm really high up and looking down and my hands get tingly.

Hello there

First off I'd like to say that many disorders are intertwined, meaning sometimes people have more than one or pieces of them. Here is a website http://www.focusas.com/PersonalityDisorders.html that has basic info about personality disorders. The no regret thing made me think of a personality disorder, BUT please don't self diagnose because you should talk to a professional. (however I'm not a professional so don't take my word for anything about personality disorders) It is always helpful to get a good idea of what you might have and then go to the Dr. about it. I really hope that you can get this under control.

Keep us updated please

I forgot, also, this could be OCD too....didn't mean to throw you in a different direction.

Thanks. Antisocial, obsessive compulsive, narcississtic, and paranoid personality disorders sound a lot, a lot like me. There are other things like anxiety and possibly hallucinations. Now I just need to go to a psychiatrist, and the hard part is telling my parents.

Glad that website could help you

Telling your parents might very well be hard, but look at it this way....the sooner you get help the sooner you can begin to get better. That is more important than anything.
