    Even if you have a minor form of OCD. OCD right and proper gets actively in the way of living. Indirect unintentional self harm either in mental or physical is not uncommon.

    Unmanageable OCD is scary. Had a good friend in high school with serious OCD issues, which lead to hoarding issues and them passing away a few years back due to none of their family helping them and the mental health support in the USA being awful.

    OCD is a spectrum disorder like autism. If you think you have it ask a mental health care professional. Most of the time its very manageable and has no impact on your quality of life. But it’s better to seek help earlier then later.

    That all said, there’s a good chance the book girl in the comic is autistic or has OCD. But not in a major form of them.
