Do I Have OCD? Quiz for Young Adults

TAKES: About 2 Minutes

FOR: Young adults (ages 18-30) and their parents/family members

PRIVATE: See your results without sharing any personally identifiable information

This quiz is designed for young adults, or the family members of young adults, who are noticing patterns of intrusive thoughts, repetitive behaviors, and overwhelming anxiety that may be interfering with daily life. These can potentially be symptoms and signs of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

This quiz is not a diagnosis, but it can be a helpful first step in understanding your experience and exploring whether further support might be valuable. Our goal is to help you or your loved one reflect on symptoms that might be tied to OCD, as a pathway to finding the right kind of support.

FAQ'S

OCD Quiz: Commonly Asked Questions

How do I know if I have OCD?

No quiz can diagnose OCD, but a screen like this can flag patterns worth taking seriously: maladaptive patterns, intrusive thoughts, or compulsive urges. If several questions feel familiar, it is worth talking to a professional.

Is this quiz a diagnosis?

No. It is a screening tool to support self-reflection and awareness. Only a licensed medical or mental health professional can assess and diagnose OCD. 

Is it private?

Yes. You can see your result without signing up or entering an email. You only share contact details if you choose to reach out to our team.

Can a parent take this for their young adult child?

Yes. The quiz is written for young adults and for the parents of young adults. Parents can answer based on what they are seeing in their child, or share it with their child to take for themselves.

What should I do with my result?

Use it as a starting point. If your result suggests some or several signs, consider reaching out to a professional. Our admissions team is available to discuss options for support.
