OCD, on the other hand, is a mental disorder characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts, images, or impulses (obsessions) that drive a person to engage in repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) in an attempt to reduce anxiety.
Studies have shown that people with ADHD may be at a higher risk of developing OCD, and vice versa. The reason for this comorbidity is not well understood, but it is thought that shared neural pathways and genetic factors may play a role.
