Obsessive compulsive disorder

 It was the COVID time.


Everyone were advised to properly wash their hands. 



Here was a lady who was  following the advisory but in a strange manner.


After touching anything, she was heading to bathroom to wash her hands. 


But how much ever she washes her hands, she is not satisfied. 


She was going on washing her hands till they become sore or chopped. 


This type of behaviour is called obsessive compulsive disorder. 


There is a difference between being perfectionist and obsessive compulsive disorder. 


I always double check if the stove, fan and lights are switched off. 


Also I double check if the doors of house are properly closed when going out. 


These practices cause no harm..


But they are called disorder when they affect the quality of life.
