Ocd and unwanted thuoght

[kerry51409Participant]

Hi

I’m getting a compulsion every time I read about OCD related topics – even if the topic isn’t about my kind of OCD (E.G, real event OCD). I get one but no bad feeling (and no desire to really do it)

is this normal? I can’t tell whether I’ve become really obsessed by this or what is going on?
