I've asked a lot of questions about this disorder allready but i'm just curious.If you have OCD(obsessive compulsive disorder) and it interferes with your job, cann you go on compensation or something like that.I had to quit my job because it was entering data into a computer and i if i missread 1 word while reading what i wrote,i had to start all over so it took me forever to enter the data and was stressing me out.

If there other things going on too that is causing you not to work then contact your local social security office about applying for benefits.
In the meantime seek professional help for yourself and take on a less stressful, demanding job next time.

I don't think compensation would cover OCD; however, I think you would fare much better in a job that does not cause you undue stress. Most employers expect you to be accurate, but some jobs involve more stress than others. I hate to say this but maybe you'd be happier in a position that's pretty much routine, or maybe even boring. At least you wouldn't have to worry about making so many mistakes.

You can only get compensated at work for something your job caused. Sorry. You really should see a doctor. There are ways to help with this disorder that can make you feel so much better. Whatever anxiety you have, try to get rid of it as much as possible and that will help with your symptoms.

maybe you might think about seeking professional help since you now are unemployed because of this obession.
