Superstition-related OCD

This is a subtype of OCD is a type of scrupulosity OCD and is characterized by intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors related to religion, morality, and ethics. People with Superstition-related OCD experience intense anxiety and guilt over thoughts and actions that they perceive as morally or ethically wrong, and they engage in repetitive rituals in an attempt to alleviate this anxiety.

Superstition-related OCD can be particularly challenging to navigate, as it often involves beliefs that are deeply held and central to a person's identity. The compulsive behaviors associated with this subtype of OCD can also be time-consuming and interfere with daily life, making it difficult to maintain relationships, work, and other important activities.
