      I know that in order to have ocd you need to be diagnosed, which I have not had done but I still worry over whether I have it. I could ask my friends, but I don’t know if they can help since I might have ocd and they don’t. Can they help or should I go to my GP?

          You can have ocd but be undiagnosed. Best to start with your GP.
