Diagnosed Of OCD Through Online Quiz. Are Online Tests For OCD Diagnosis Accurate?

Hi, I have recently stumbled across a website for OCD and it had listed down the symptoms of OCD. I read through the list and found that I matched quite a few. I then found a professional website and took a quiz. The reply I recieved at the end of the quiz stated that I may have OCD. I am unsure what to do and I am too nervous to talk to my doctor about it and I don t know how to tell my parents. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Unfortunately most of website OCD diagnose are not right. The best thing for you to consult a psychiatrist ,tell him all the problems, and follow his advice properly.
