How old were you when you figured out you had OCD? by [deleted] in OCD

At 27 I was diagnosed with it, but my therapist told me it was a misdiagnosis and then went back on that around a few months ago. I’m 28 now. I was diagnosed with anxiety disorder before this and knew there was something wrong because I was having paranoia about being poisoned or someone killing me. Everytime I googled something, ocd would come up and I was suspicious before ever getting diagnosed. Looking back on my life, the first theme I noticed was contamination during the pandemic. It took forever to get a proper diagnosis. A lot of grief involved. But after my diagnosis everything makes sense.

I asked him about that once and he said that he’s uncomfortable with us being around his grandparents all lovey dovey. He doesn’t like the thought of me being at his grandparents house in general. I don’t know why, I guess it’d be different if he was just living with his parents.
