I have this obsession and I'm starting to think there's something wrong with me.

whenever I'm in school I feel the need to write just anything, because of this i'd copy down even unnecessary notes and when I don't have anything else to write id start copying down yesterday notes again. but what's even weirder is that I don't feel that obsession when I'm home, I only want to do it when I'm in class​

Answer: Exercise regularly. Exercise is a natural and effective anti-anxiety treatment that helps to control OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) symptoms by refocusing your mind when obsessive thoughts and compulsions arise. For maximum benefit, try to get 30 minutes or more of activity on most days. Ten minutes several times a day can be as effective as one longer period especially if you pay mindful attention to the movement process. Also, try reaching out to a trusted adult for comfort.
