Did the Covid shutdowns make your OCD worse?

Did you find that the Covid shutdowns made your OCD worse?

Was it comforting during the shutdown to have your OCD take over or did it feel like you were at a loss?

I know of some friends that were on both sides.

I don't have OCD, but I have some issues with stress, anxiety, and hypertension. The first few weeks of shutdowns brought relaxation but when the shutdown was prolonged, I had to battle stress, anxiety, and depression.

COVID has left me with paranoia. I'm constantly in fear of getting COVID. I wear a mask everywhere.
