I am diagnosed OCD and the word “uncertainties” definitely jumps out. What questions and uncertainties do you ruminate about? And how anxious do you feel when thinking about those questions?

I know no one here is a diagnostician, but I am asking more for understanding the internal experience if that makes sense

So the key word here is uncertainty. That is the anxiety OCD. While OCD and autism have over lapping behavioral symptoms and tendencies. It is based on the why internally. For an extreme example, think of autism having to know the WHY to their own questions, and will learn it all as they please. For OCD, it ends when we have a why or feel for example, food based OCD and knowing food is clean. Where it’s from. And its effects on you. Not why the food is the way it is as a food biologically.
