Why is obsessive compulsive disorder such a common psychological disorder today?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
We don't know.: There has been some speculation about the fact that obsessive compulsive traits, ie the ability to be meticulous, the ability to check your work, have been so valued in this country that we have actually helped to increase it's presence in our society.
