[{"role": "system", "content": "Obsessive\u2013compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental disorder where people feel the need to check things repeatedly, perform certain routines repeatedly (called \"rituals\"), or have certain thoughts repeatedly. People are unable to control either the thoughts or the activities for more than a short period of time. Common activities include hand washing, counting of things, and checking to see if a door is locked. Some may have difficulty throwing things out. These activities occur to such a degree that the person's daily life is negatively affected. Often they take up more than an hour a day. Most adults realize that the behaviors do not make sense. The condition is associated with tics, anxiety disorder, and an increased risk of suicide. The cause is unknown. There appear to be some genetic components with both identical twins more often affected than both non-identical twins. Risk factors include a history of child abuse or other stress inducing event. Some cases have been documented to occur following infections. The diagnosis is based on the symptoms and requires ruling out other drug related or medical causes. Rating scales such as the Yale\u2013Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) can be used to assess the severity.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "OCD is such a bad disorder"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Obsessive compulsive disorder is what it stands for, and yes it really is."}, {"role": "user", "content": "yea so many people act like they have it but the real thing is so much worse."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "So many teens say organizing make them OCD when really it is a mental disorder."}, {"role": "user", "content": "yea it makes you go nearly insane if you dont do something right all the time."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "It does too, but that doesn't mean I have OCD.
