Stuck on one picture of the facts or engaging in ritual behaviours?
People with schizophrenia, schizoaffective, and bipolar disorders sometimes experience obsessive and compulsive symptoms.

While OCD is its own condition, some of its symptoms can figure prominently in psychosis, regarding sticking to delusions or strange and ritual behaviour.

During the lead up to the last of my hospitalizations, prior to admission a big signal was how obsessive and compulsive my behaviour was, even to the point of endangering myself. I describe some of this behaviour in the video.

OC symptoms are not just for those with OCD! In fact, many symptoms of many conditions are no stranger to those who experience psychosis. Anxiety, depression, OCD, and more live closely with schizophrenics.
