Is there is a genetic link to OCD?

[ox2Participant]

Hi:

Does anyone know if there is a genetic link to OCD?  I don’t know if there is, but l guess, maybe there could be? Like, we have to be a certain person, and cause of that  we get ocd, know what I mean?

If you think there is a genetic meaning for ocd, can it ever be managed or cured?
