What is Obsessive compulsive?

• Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental
  health condition where a person has obsessive
  thoughts and compulsive activity. A obsession is
  an unpleasant and undesirable thought, image or
  urge that enters a person's mind, causing
  feelings of unease, disgust or stress. A
  compulsion is a psychological or persistent
  behaviour act that somebody feels that they
  should execute to attempt to temporarily
  alleviate the unpleasant feelings brought on by
  the idea that is obsessive.

What Are The Main Factors Which Causes OCD?

• Studies have also shown people with OCD have an
  imbalance of serotonin in their mind. Serotonin
  is a chemical the brain uses to transmit data
  from 1 brain cell to another. In some cases the
  condition may run in families, and may be linked
  to specific inherited genes which influence the
  brain's development.
