Doing out of character things

[NJ321]

This is a question about OCD & depression issues. I was wondering if they could cause you to act completely out of character in terms of behavior. I've done things in the past that I feel I normally wouldn't do, nothing illegal or anything that could affect anyone, but probably would come across as pretty weird & creepy to some. And I look back & wonder what I was thinking at the time. It still definitely bothers me at times.

If it's stuff in your past you're bothered by today, sounds like OCD. Best to stop ruminating about it.

We all do weird things. That you are now looking back, pondering those things and feeling badly about them smacks of OCD.

You're trying to figure out why you did such things but most people just forgetabout them and get on with their lives. Try your best not to ruminate over what's done or why it was done. Leave them alone.
