My son has OCD. It is controlled by medication now and only mildly interferes with his life these days. Used to be really bad. He would leave the house. Walk a half a block away and then get panicked that he didn’t lock the door and go back and check. Ten or twelve times. He knew it was locked but his OCD made him go back and check anyway. That is just one example of how it would take over and he could have dozens of other triggers in a day. Caring about order and wanting things a certain way is not OCD even though it is one of the most misused terms around.
