So, I haven’t been diagnosed with OCD, but over the past year I’ve developed something that seems very much like it. It might be OCD, but I don’t know. I have very strong urges to move my body in certain ways or touch certain things in certain patterns or an amount of times. An example of this is when I’m typing on a real keyboard I repeatedly hit buttons that I don’t need to hit because I almost constantly have the random urge to. I get a very strong tingling sensation inside of my body that almost hurts when I resist the urge. I don’t have any emotional parts of OCD, I don’t really worry about things or have anxiety very much. I used to have anxiety, but this has kind of replaced that. There are a few people in my family with symptoms of Tourette’s, I’m not sure if it’s full on or not, so my situation may have been influenced by that. Any advice/help is greatly appreciated!

Sensory phenomena are also Neural Circuitry of Interoception: New Insights into Anxiety and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders.https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40501-014-0019-0 Sensory phenomena are also highly prevalent in Tourette’s disorder (TD), where they manifest primarily as muscle tension, numbness, tingling, and/or itching in a specific body part prior to tics, known as a premonitory urge or “sensory tic” [39–41].

Everyone seems to experience OCD differently, that's why we have all these labels. But OCD can expand outside the labels listed in this app and what you're describing when you say you have strong urges and almost feel a sort of pain in not compulsing seems like you're describing a type of obsession. I mean to me different obsessions feel differently they're not always emotionally based. I'm not a psychologist though so I would see someone for an official diagnosis especially if it's causing you pain and discomfort. But I believe you could have some form of OCD.

You can have (perfectionist,symmetrical or precision) ocd and not have accompanying anxiety (anxiety sensitivity) or worry. The sensory touch or tactile sensory specific stimuli might be related to the keyboard touch. See a therapist. I’m not a doctor, just an OCDer who reads scientific articles...lol

You do not have any anxiety when you resist hitting random buttons on your keyboard when you have the urge? What prevents you from resisting the urge to push random keyboard buttons besides the strong tingling sensation? Are you sure there is no accompanying anxiety with the tingling sensation?

You’re welcome glad my ocd could help. ?

Is the tingling sensation in your chest or stomach?
