Summary:

Tade exhibits stress and anxiety symptoms related to her OCD, including an obsessive hatred and fear of cats and compulsions such as hair pulling and switching on and off light switches for a certain number of times before she can continue normal tasks. These obsessions and compulsions impact her family and friends, adding additional stress to her daily life. Despite the impact of these obsessions and compulsions she does not have interest in eliminating or allaying her obsessions and compulsions. In addition to her OCD, she describes symptoms of depression and a breakup with her boyfriend because of her obsessions. At work, Tade feels her OCD symptoms invite her coworkers to take advantage of her. She describes having limited and inadequate coping mechanisms for dealing with stress. Growing up, her mother was always angry at Tade for her obsessions and compulsions and the only person she had to talk to was her boyfriend, who recently broke up with her.
