Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a condition characterized by repetition of the same act over and over again as a response to persistent unwanted thoughts or images.

Explain OCD.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by excessive, unreasonable cravings to perform particular behaviors as well as persistent, unwanted, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) (compulsions). Even though OCD sufferers may be aware that their actions and ideas are absurd, they frequently lack the control to change them.

Males frequently experience the onset of symptoms earlier than females, usually in childhood, adolescence, or young adulthood. OCD will be diagnosed in more than 2% of Americans (almost 1 in 40) at some point in their lives.
