behavioural characteristics of OCD
COMPULSIONS
the behavioural component of OCD is compulsive behaviour, the two elements of compulsive behaviours:
-the compulsions are repetitive: typical sufferers feel compelled to repeat behaviour e.g. hand washing. Others include counting, praying and tidying.
-compulsions reduce anxiety: around 10% of sufferers of OCD show compulsive behaviour alone, just a general sense of irrational anxiety. However for most people, compulsive behaviour are performed in an attempt to manage the anxiety which is produced by the obsessions, e.g., hand washing is a response to the obsessive fear of germs.
AVOIDANCE
The behaviour of OCD sufferers may also be characterised by their avoidance of situations that could trigger their anxiety, they keep their OCD under control through this. E.g. sufferers who wash their hands multiple times may avoid coming into contact with germs. However, this avoidance can lead to people avoiding very ordinary situations, such as emptying their bins, which could interfere with living a normal life.
