OCD Test / Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Test

It can quietly take over your thoughts, your time, and even your peace of mind — especially when left untreated.

In Malaysia, more people are starting to talk about OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder). Many still think it’s just about being “neat” or “perfectionist,” but OCD is much deeper than that. It’s a mental health condition where unwanted thoughts (obsessions) lead to repetitive actions (compulsions).

What OCD Can Look Like

People with OCD might wash or clean repeatedly, check things over and over, or get stuck in constant doubt or guilt. Others may struggle silently with mental rituals — like counting, praying, or rethinking situations to feel “just right.”

OCD can affect anyone — children, teens, or adults — and it often gets misunderstood as a personality trait rather than a treatable condition.
