Does anyone suffer from OCD?

And what I mean is truly suffer from it. It sucks away hours from your life just to rid of the superfluous anxiety. A year ago, I washed my hands probably over 20 times an hour. Of course, the dermatitis caused me to take control of it. I suffer moderately now. You can see my compulsions are on my profile.

It is a horrible disease. Does anyone else suffer?

Who are you?

And what is OCD? Is it fear of germs?

Do you not come in contact with OCD often being a doctor? Or do you work in a specific field of medicine where you don't come accross it? Anyway, it is when someone is obsessive about their environment, having lots of rituals such as flipping light switches repeatedly and washing surfaces over and over again, etc...

 Also, off-topic - I think I still may have it a bit, I had to correct dtewis spelling of superfluous in the quote, that's obsessive lol.

A doctor who doesnt know what OCD is?  Maybe by doctor he means chiropractor.
