| Response from Dr. Horwath
 Obsessive compulsive disorder is a condition in which a person has repetitive, intrusive and unwanted thoughts. The thoughts can involve fears ( a common one is fear of contamination or fear of committing an aggressive act), but may also involve other issues, and often seem irrational or senseless to the person having them. | ||||||||
