Core symptoms:

 Obsessional thoughts: repetitive intrusive thoughts, impulses or images, which are experienced as inappropriate, unpleasant and cause anxiety

 Compulsions: repetitive behaviours or mental acts carried out in response to an obsession or according to some personal rule, experienced as unpleasant and cause anxiety

 Recognition that these are coming from one's own mind: rather than being implanted in one's mind by someone or something else

 Attempts to prevent or resist obsessions or compulsions: although over time that resistance may become minimal

 Recognition that obsessions or compulsions are excessive or unreasonable at some point over the course of the disorder.

Common symptoms:

 Thoughts of being responsible for harming others or for the occurrence of unwanted or terrible events.
