Is my OCD bc of toxo: you've been dx'ed with OCD, a form of anxiety characterized by intrusive worry thoughts. studies linking toxo to development of scz are in very early phases, and barely exist for OCD. It is hily unlikely OCD sxs are related to toxo exposure. Further, OCD is not likely to "become" scz.Talk to your doc abt treatment for OCD, and you'll begin to feel better!
