What other things do people with OCD obsess over?

[Brem]

I know with people who have OCD often obsess about things like germs, cleanliness, fear for their safety, things being out of place or not in order, etc. But are there specific things that people with OCD do that some others don't? What are some things people with OCD by obsess over that most people don't? What other issues do those with OCD suffer from?

People with OCD often engage in repetitive rituals like excessive handwashing, checking locks, or arranging items precisely—behaviors beyond normal caution. They may also obsess over intrusive thoughts, moral fears, or symmetry, often accompanied by anxiety, depression, or perfectionism.

OCD is never a small thing at all. Some people are just too obsessed with symmetry, some would even check doors or gas like ten times before leaving the house. One of my neighbours is like that, she would lock her door, walk away, then she would come back again to check if it's locked..People think it’s just neatness, but it’s something much more deeper.
