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?

Mushroom, I think the point Loubee was trying to make is that some people are too quick to label or diagnose themselves. As someone with OCD, doesn't it piss you off when people trivialise it by claiming they have it as an excuse?

I think when people have alot of demands on them, like the 'stars' they have to be really organised to keep things running smoothly- I dont think that means they have OCD.Why does everything have to be labelled?maybe these stars are just selfabsored
