Compulsive or repetitive behaviours
Compulsive or repetitive behaviours are actions that a person feels driven to perform, often in response to intrusive thoughts or anxiety. Common examples include repeated hand-washing, checking locks, counting, or arranging objects. While everyone has habits, compulsions become a concern when they are time-consuming, distressing, or interfere with daily life.
