Brain injuries and OCD
Has anyone experienced OCD tendencies after a traumatic brain injury? I have been recovering for half a year and I have begun to feel a bit more normal now, not as much cranial pain, brain fuzziness, memory issues etc. But with this I have begun to become very paranoid with cleanliness, and daily I will be cleaning for hours on end, sometimes cleaning something over and over until I am tired or satisfied. It has been good for keeping the house lean but it is all I think about, sometimes I will clean in the middle of the night because the anxiety of wanting things clean keeps me awake, even after cleaning all day. I have never been this way before, I was clean but it was never the only thing in my head and never made me anxious.
