Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder:
There are many reasons why there are obsessive or compulsive behaviors, which lead to unnecessary thoughts like a need for cleanness, hoarding, and intrusive thoughts about sex, religion, violence, and body parts.
Obsessive thoughts can include:
- Fear of getting dirty in order to avoid germs or bacterial infections.
- Worrying about getting hurt or others getting hurt or not.
- A belief that certain numbers or colors are “good” or “bad”
- Need to have a constant awareness of blinking, breathing, or other body sensations
- Need for things to be placed in an exact orderly fashion
- Unsubstantiated suspicion that one’s partner is unfaithful
Compulsive habits can include:
- Fear of using public toilets, or shaking hands with other people
- Putting items in exact order, like cans with labels facing front
- Doing tasks in a specific order or number every time
- Washing hands many times
- Repetitive checking on a locked door, light switch, and other things
Bi-Polar Disorder
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a serious mental illness. It’s a disorder that can lead to risky behavior, damaged relationships and careers, and even suicidal tendencies if it’s not treated. Bipolar disorder is characterized by extreme changes in mood, from mania to depression. Between these moods, a person with bipolar disorder may experience normal moods. “Manic” disorder describes an increasingly restless, energetic, talkative, powerful, euphoric period.

“Depression” or depressive disorder describes the opposite mood — sadness, crying, sense of worthlessness, loss of energy, loss of pleasure, sleep problems. Compared to mania, depressive individuals will be having more episodes.
Bi-Polar Manic symptoms include:
- Impulsiveness, reckless pursuit of gratification
- Excessive Self-esteem
- Abnormal energy; less need for sleep
- Excessive talk
- Irritability or Euphoria
- Alcohol, drugs
- Poor judgment
- Unrealistic expectations
Bi-Polar Depressive symptoms include:
- Lack of interest or pleasure in usual activities
- Lack of concentration
- Insomnia
- Suicidal thoughts and feelings
- Lack of interest, enthusiasm, or concern.
- Sadness, loneliness, helplessness, guilt
- Low self-esteem
- Unable to control tears

Frequently asked questions
Mental illnesses happen when the brain does not function or respond the way it normally should. Just like the heart or kidneys, the brain is an organ that can experience health issues.
Dofody psychiatrists and psychologists treat a wide variety of conditions, including bipolar disorder, anxiety, OCD, mania, and substance abuse. They use strict clinical training to provide psychological interventions and medications.
OCD involves obsessive thoughts, such as an intense fear of germs, and compulsive habits like washing hands repeatedly. Patients may also feel the need to place items in an exact order or repeatedly check locked doors.
Bipolar disorder causes extreme mood swings shifting between mania and severe depression. A manic phase brings abnormal energy and impulsiveness, while a depressive phase causes sadness, insomnia, and feelings of worthlessness.
You can consult a psychiatrist privately by registering an account on the Dofody platform and speaking with a doctor from your home. This helps individuals safely seek care while avoiding the public stigma of visiting a clinic.
