Justin Timberlake Admits to OCD

It’s funny when you hear about these things, everything just seems to sort of all make sense. Justin has recently revealed that OCD, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, affects many parts of his life, including specifics like making sure some of his objects are always lined up *just right*.

He also says he is struggling with ADD, Attention Deficit Disorder and says living with the two disorders combined is extremely complicated. Oddly enough, it’s almost safe to say one has mental problems in Hollywood these days as fellow celebs such as Jessica Alba, David Beckham, and Cameron Diaz have all said they too are suffering from OCD, an anxiety disorder that is characterized by obsessive thoughts, compulsions, and rituals.

ADD on the other hand has symptoms such as extreme distractibility and hyperactivity. Which may mean why he is such an excellent performer, but could you imagine living with compulsions AND distractions at the same time?

Justin says one example of how it complicates his life is recently he had a fight with his girlfriend Jessica Biel when the contents of their fridge weren’t organized properly. I never would have imagined Justin with fridge issues, but hey, this is what makes talking about their personal lives so interesting.

And if Cameron Diaz too suffers from OCD it would explain a LOT about why they didn’t work out. Now you wanna throw Britney Spears into the mix, and yes, it does make sense all across the board, doesn’t it?

    I wonder if he has true, diagnosed OCD, or if he’s just a control freak? A lot of people throw around the “oh, I have OCD” without understand what people who actually have diagnosed OCD live with. If indeed he does actually have real OCD, then props to him for still attaining that level of success.
