Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

I understand that you are quite worried about your problem. Such uncontrollable impulses or repetitive acts, which you find difficult to control could be a part of an obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).

Since this problem seems to be cauing you a lot of distress, I would suggest that you see a psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation and to confirm the diagnosis. Once the exact diagnosis is confirmed, then further treatment can be initiated. There are effective treatments in the form of medication or counselling which can help you overcome this problem. So, please seek professional help at the earliest.

Wish you all the best.

Regards,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
