Diagnosis doesn't...: ... Always ensure getting the right help. As reported by the international ocd foundation, it typically takes from 14-17 years from the time ocd symptoms appear for an individual to get effective treatment! see the foundation's website for helpful resources on diagnosis, treatment & support: http://www.Ocfoundation.Org.

OCD: OCD symptoms can go back a very long way in a person's life and can go on unless unresolved by meds if needed and therapy. The ritualistic behaviors of OCD are typically rooted in emotional issues of unresolved anger or fear.
