Justin Timberlake: "I suffer from OCD"

David Beckham has famously admitting to struggling with it, Cameron Diaz avoids doorknobs like the plague, Leo DiCaprio admits he had a fascination with avoiding cracks in the pavement when he was a child, and now another celeb has come forward to talk about their problems with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Justin Timberlake admitted recently that the condition effects several aspects of his life, and he finds himself constantly checking to make sure things are lined up correctly. "I have OCD mixed with ADD," he said, "You try living with that. It's complicated." OCD is a psychiatric anxiety disorder characterised by obsessive thoughts, compulsions or rituals, while ADD is a developmental disorder, which causes forgetfulness, distractibility and hyperactivity. Justin also says he's addicted to performing live – but that can only be a good thing, right?

I suffer from OCD and have done for the last 16-20 years. I expect Justin does have the illness. Stress from his busy work schedule worsens it too. No laughing matter guys! (not taking a pop at anyone!) But good on ya Justin for telling it how it is!

These celebs are pathetic. They dont know the first thing about mental illness and how it can ruin your life. they have money for private treatment.
