Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) that the individual feels compelled to perform. These obsessions and compulsions can significantly interfere with daily activities and cause considerable distress. Effective treatment is crucial to manage symptoms and improve overall quality of life.
