A member asked:
If i still think about many things which happen about 2 hours after, can that be slow processing speed ? or is it from symptoms of my ocd ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
OCD obsessing: It is not a slow processing speed. Rather it is obsessionalism. This is common in ocd. In adhd there is a similar symptom where you obsessively focus on something you are interested in and have difficulty turning your attention to something else. Both of these are basically forms of perseveration.
