  • OCD and ADHD are distinct but also comorbid disorders that can share similar symptoms, behaviors, and outcomes - for opposing reasons. This overlap can complicate diagnosis and treatment for patients with both conditions. In this hour-long ADDitude webinar with Roberto Olivardia, Ph.D., we explore the OCD-ADHD interplay, as well as treatment considerations when the two disorders are present.

    ADHD and "Pure O" here. I wanted to correct something you said somewhere in the 9-10 minute mark about Pure OCD not having compulsions. This is a common misconception, but people with supposedly "Pure O" actually do have compulsions. They're just not as discernable as people who do things like repeated hand-washing, etc. For instance, one of my compulsions is reassurance seeking through Googling, another is reassurance seeking from others, another is avoiding certain materials. Knowing what my compulsions are has been essential for better managing my OCD

    I think much of my OCD symptoms were originally caused or exacerbated by my pre existing ADHD. For example, when I was a kid I'd forget everything, so when I left home aged 17 and I was accountable for my own mistakes I started writing out lists to remind me. This was an immeasurably helpful coping strategy and still is. However I also started checking for my keys, wallet etc and this spiraled into more and more checking - switches, windows, doors etc. Also I've developed compulsive non religious praying to negate anxious thoughts. Now in my mid to late 40s I've finally been diagnosed with both severe ADHD and severe OCD, and am waiting for a diagnostic assessment of Tic Disorder / Tourettes. It's great to finally understand myself, but also frustrating to think my childhood was made hell by school teachers who would punish me on a daily basis for being inattentive, lazy and hyperactive. My negative treatment at school has affected my whole adult life, made me pathologically avoidant of employment by having it ingrained into my brain that I'm useless. I'm almost 50 with heart issues and chronic pain, I'm not going to put myself under unnecessary stress at my age. Their system screwed me up, their system can support me. It's the least they can do.

      I am so sorry that you experienced that and can relate to alot of the compensating. I will also say, if people don't know about manuplulative or the narricistic please look it up (Little Shaman is a great resource.) Being with these types will make your OCD and ADHD & self-worth worse. Whether they are planned on purpose or not, it increases risk of gaslighting, self-doubt, guilt and feeling like you can never get it right. I also found researching this to be helpful to find out how other people think and perceive the world, and what areas of communication, etc.

      Can also relate to the school thing but it may have not been as bad as in your times (im very sorry Thai happend to you), still, im 22 Years and by now barely anything has changed in school System. Im from Germany by the way, so maybe that is a sad truth to adhders globaly.

      I can relate. I was diagnosed with ADHD two years ago aged 45 and OCD only two weeks ago. In a way a weight has been lifted, but its been replaced with anger at being bullied and discriminated against my whole life, usually by authority figures who would accuse me of being lazy or difficult. Also, knowing I have ADHD has made me give up on trying to be motivated, because I know whatever I start I'll lose interest in soon after. The OCD diagnosis has been more helpful though for some reason.

Only recently have I realized, after adhd treatment has not helped my intrusive thoughts and exacerbated my rituals, skin picking, to name a few...that OCD had been the sinister thing hiding underneath all along.

    I have both although I outgrew most of the OCD. It was a compulsion to count and/or do things in 4's. There was never any fearful thoughts that went with it. My best guess is that because the ADHD makes it feel like you are not in control of your own attention span and memory, The compulse counting was a way to have control of something.

    I am a special education teacher, so I am familiar with accomodations and modifications in the public school system etc.
    What exists for adults?
    When I get these diagnosis, who is there to tell me that I should look into ADA?

      I've struggled to work any more than 20 hours a week and have only kept jobs due to nepotism. Even working those minimal hours was stressful (stress is one of the few things I can use to force myself to focus for short bursts). It's exhausting...
      It's so frustrating. I don't feel disabled, but no matter how hard I try I can't do basic tasks that are expected in a functioning life. I'm happy on weeks where I actually cook for myself or do enough chores to make upkeep passable. As of now I've tried medications and none have worked without unlivable side effects. Apparently I'm hyper sensitive to almost every medication and I've developed a fear of trying any more after the latest one almost gave me a mental breakdown.
      So yeah... I'm in the same boat. I wonder if I should apply for disability help of some kind. No one prepares you for these kinds of problems in life.

    I've always found the way executive functioning is described in OCD to be a little not to the point. For me and others in an online support group I'm part of, the crux of OCD - whether compulsive or pure O - is an intense underlying fear/worry or discomfort. In fact, people with OCD experience fight or flight responses in their amygdala - so, it's strong feelings. When you look at OCD through that lens of that fight or flight worry, you understand that OCD is an involuntary and very unwanted response. (It gets more unwanted and prison-like the higher someone's level of OCD is. I think severe OCD is almost a different disorder than very minor OCD and one of the worst things a person can experience.) Executive function deviation in OCD is a byproduct of prioritizing appeasing the fear when it comes up; that's all it is. But I feel like it often is described as a separate issue. Like if a person with OCD without ADHD is doing a task that doesn't involve their OCD symptoms or fear they or others could come up, I bet they would do the task really well. I'm not a scientist, this is just what it always felt like to me as someone who has had OCD.

I figure i had pure o- religious ocd and then ignored it because I thought I he already overcame it, years later I discovered I likely have add. Now I felt led to start researching it again and I started crying a little bit. My mental health has been a very big obstacle in everything I do, specially in my relationship with Jesus. I remember one time when I was abou 11 years old, and my ocd was in its purest form I think any psychologist would have been able to identify it, but my parent didn’t know about it so I was never seen, they just thought it was funny I was so religious (they didn’t think it was cute or even like how it should be, they would often tell me to stop praying “like that” or joke about my compulsions), I guess they thought it was a phase idk. One time a random person that didn’t know me prayed for me and told me “Jesus says that He is please with your heart” and that what I was so worried about all the time with ocd. I’m just so moved right now because He always knew what it was and understood my struggle. Even after it made me step away a little bit from my faith He led me to the right places to find out about this, and now He is doing it again. Hopefully now that I’m an adult I’ll get the profesional help I needed

    I do have OCD, this doctor told me this during this video! I also have an Anxiety Disorder for sure , and I also have Social Pragmatic Communication Disorder. And now I’m even being told I have PTSD but it’s more like CPTSD, it’s what has caused the doctors to finally see I have anxiety really badly and my excessive talking is what told them I have bad anxiety. I have no pause mechanism, it’s hard to stop letting others know how I’m feeling and what is bothering me, I also have to tell others so that is partially because I have OCD. I check things and I have repetitive thoughts all day long and I also have the images but that can be because I have PTSD because I’m having certain flashbacks of situations I’ve been through. These doctors need to actually really help us not all these medications are helping us some haven’t been able to fine the right treatment that works. And they have been seeking help for over 40 years!

    Fascinating, important insight at 34:09. Can people with OCD, anxiety, and ADHD become distracted by their obsessive thoughts and anxiety because the mind, in its own complex way, finds more energy and dopamine from the OCD and anxiety than the college lecture. In other words, perhaps OCD and anxiety don't just represents serotonin dysregulation/deficits, but dopamine deficits where the mind goes to the obsessions and even anxiety as a source of dopamine. This could explain why some of us are drawn to our fears and obsessions in some way and can't focus on other things. I think there's something to be said for this possibility. Again, fantastic video.

    I am reaching a conclusion that the genetic roots of a significant percentage of these disorders could be mutations in the mthfr gene which a large number in the population carry (1/3rd?). Mutations affect a person’s methylation cycles. As I understand it, this has a whole range of effects from being unable to process synthetic versions of B vitamins in particular and becoming deficient in then which causes deficiencies and toxicities in other areas. A mother with mthfr who is seriously deficient can have a baby with spina bifida or a range of other neural tube defects at varying degrees of severity. A child with it may be more prone to damage from heavy metal toxicity from vaccines such as autism or glyphosate toxicity from pesticides.
    I think it can be linked to overly oily skin and persistent acne (and therefore skin picking disorders), along with gut & digestion issues and symptoms such as anxiety, fatigue, brain fog and depression. Whether or not it causes physical changes in brain associated with adhd I’m not sure but I suspect it will also have an effect on neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin.

    I thought for months if I heard the word cancer three times that this was a sign that I was going to die. When I heard it for the third time at a AA meeting from the speaker. My heart just dropped into my stomach. I cried that night because I was sure I was going to die of cancer.
    I was also obsessed with even numbers; everything had to add up to even numbers. If something was 27, I would add 2+7 which would =9. I would then take the word nine and add the 4 letters to the number 9, which would =13. I would then add 1+3, which of course =4.
    I would count and add up phone numbers, count tiles on floors and ceilings. I could not even go to sleep unless I closed my eyes and opened them up on an even number. I have gotten a lot better with this, but my TV still has to be on an even number. I actually called the number 8, my favorite number; I think this is where it started, with the even numbers that is.
    I remember when my foster father got sick and he told me not to say anything to my foster mom (I was probably 7 at the time). I got scared and I ended up telling my older foster sister, and my foster father ended up going in the hospital and he ended up dying in the hospital. I felt like it was my fault because I said something. Oh, and the number adding was something I didn't like doing, I felt like I had to do it. I have so many other OCD examples, it's freaking crazy. Even too the point of clutter distracting me, and my hair being a certain way bothering me. When I have my hair in a bun that feels right too me, it just FEELS RIGHT TO ME...I can't really explain it. Oh, and I did a study on tithing, was obsessed on it for over 2 years. Caused me such anxiety. God there is so much I can say, these videos are helping me, but they can be overwhelming because it explains so, so much.
    Perfectionism with me in just certain areas, are a huge struggle with me. I really have a lot of work to do. It scares me, but I have resiliance.

    Is there anywhere I can learn more about the interaction of ADHD and OCD described around 33:00 (the way that ADHD can trigger OCD symptoms and vice versa)? I'm also interested in the way that activated OCD can make ADHD symptoms seem to be mitigated (the whack-a-mole phenomenon) and would love to learn more about that! I think I've experienced this and would love to understand why this happens.

    I have celiac disease and I struggled all my life with iron deficiency. I also developed depression because i didn t know about my condition and I developed many other conditions and I also have Gad 65 antibodies.
    How would you define a dopamie/serotonine and gaba deficiency ?

I’ve been over an hour trying to find it. And to view a video I can pause and back up and fast forward. The link I was se t just jumps in large increments when I try. Please help! Thx

    One way my ocd manifests is I have to put my right contact in before my left one (they are different prescriptions). I'm afraid if I don't my husband will die in a car crash while he's at work or one of my kids will break an arm or leg. Lol! I know its not true but I can't help doing it anyway. Just to be safe.

      This is a video primarily about ADHD. But a quick note - the term "Asperger's" isn't used any more. Everything is now called ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) and it's simply a question of where you are on that spectrum. Someone who would have previously been said to have Asperger's would now be said to have relatively mild ASD.

    Hey Dr! I just wanted to say thanks for your presentation. It was really interesting! So, I've been reading up on some new research, and it seems like there might be some evidence indicating that SSRI medications could potentially have a negative impact on ADHD symptoms. Just thought I'd share that with you!

    I'm confused 🤔 I just listened to a podcast that said OCD is very unlikely to co-exist with ADHD? I have both. I can not take ssri's for OCD. I am being treated for ADHD and now I'm wondering if the medication is making the OCD more pronounced. I pick and pull. My OCD is beginning to affect my ability to get started on a task. I'll sit and pick at my lip and my brain runs wild but I'm inactive physically. I'm especially stressed and just wind up not getting anything done. That vicious cycle starts and now I'm having trouble chilling in the evening before going to bed. I'm not sure if the medication isn't making me worse. I'm not hyperactive. I'm not impulsive. My emotions are not regulated well at all. I'm not making any sense. I feel very confused and uncertain. What if I'm just a mess and no one will ever understand me. How can I get help if no one understands what I'm dealing with? All of this is just overwhelming... And I have chronic pain due to several autoimmune conditions. Is there any help for me?
