In contemporary society, more and more people have anxiety due to stress or some other reasons. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a specific type of anxiety that is still not well understood by many people because they are ashamed to talk about their "abnormalities". According to research, obsessive-compulsive disorder is not only common in adults, but also in school-age students who suffer a lot from it and are often more susceptible. Compulsive thinking in elementary and middle school students has been studied by many experts. However, there is still a gap in research on the impact of obsessive-compulsive disorder on high school students in China. Surveys and interviews will be used to examine the experiences of high school students with OCD and what kind of help they are more interested in.
