Moral OCD: When Doubting You're a 'Bad Person' Becomes a Disorder
Moral OCD is a form of obsessive-compulsive disorder centered on intrusive worries about being a 'bad' person. It drives compulsions like reassurance-seeking, rumination, and undoing behaviors in a bid for certainty, often disrupting daily life and social belonging. Effective treatment typically uses exposure and response prevention (ERP), sometimes with medication, and requires a mental-health professional with OCD expertise.
