Can you please define hocd and can a 13 year old have it?
10 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
HOCD: I suspect you mean homosexual obsessive compulsive disorder. 13 year olds can have obsessive compulsive disorder. If you think your 13 year old is having intrusive thoughts about anything that is interrupting his/her daily function you should seek help from a professional for him/her.

Sexual Thoughts @ 13: Ocd often develops in childhood. Of adults w/ocd, from 20-50% have experienced symptoms as kids. It can be tough 2 discern whether a child/teen is having intrusive thoughts that might include "am i gay?" as a result of ocd or as a result of just having same-sex attractions. Suggest finding a gay-affirmative psychologist/psychiatrist who specializes in ocd. Teen ocd info: http://bit.Ly/1ede7f9.
