About 90 % of all people have symptoms that fall under OCD at some point of their lives. The percentige of people that need treatment is far smaller, though.
I was diagnosed with OCD (obsessive thoughts) a few years back, but I got it under controll with therapy. I was afraid of everything, I though I or everyone close to me could die at any moment. Well that's true, actually, but the thought hounded me back then. I was constantly sure I was terminally ill or that someone would just jump behind a corner and shoot me or what ever. It had lots to do with beeing teased and beaten in my teens at school. I'll never get rid of the thoughts totally, but nowadays I know how to controll them.
