      So as someone who has obsessive-compulsive tendencies but definitely not OCD I would define it as such: OCD is when your general functioning is noticeably and demonstrably impaired by your obsessive-compulsive behaviour.

      I can get stuck in loops sometimes and I can get hung up on things, but I’ve seen people with actual OCD around when I’ve been at my psychiatrist’s clinic and it’s different.
