How can i tell my parents i have ocd?

Your Dr dx's: Go to him/her first. He/she will probably know how to share what you've told in a way that is more likely to produce a favorable outcome. Parents are likely to accept what they need to hear from a respected doctor rather than directly from you. And your self-diagnosis does need confirmation. OCD is often fairly easy to manage. Be pro-active and brave and your life will probably get really good.

I feel tired from inside . Iam sure i have OCD. I feel extreme fear every time i have exam . I always check things many times. My parents not serious.
Severe OCD is not letting me live with parents. I get extreme anxiety, doubt, etc if they touch anything in the house. I have to be constantly alert & panicky. They also get irritated. I feel guilty to ask them to live with my bro. Living alone helps?
