This test screens for all types.

Can this test diagnose OCD?

No. This is a screening tool, not a diagnostic test. Only a licensed mental health professional can diagnose OCD through comprehensive clinical evaluation.

Harm OCD involves intrusive, unwanted thoughts about harming yourself or others (often loved ones). These thoughts cause extreme distress and are EGO-DYSTONIC (completely against your values). People with harm OCD are NOT dangerous - they're horrified by these thoughts. This harm OCD test screens for these symptoms.
