How do you get tested for OCD?

Question

Interview some therapists on the phone and find one who's experienced treating OCD.  Be honest about your symptoms.  You may need to see a psychiatrist for meds too.  

There's a wonderful Yahoo! email list for parents of OCD kids called ocdandparenting.  Especially if you're a teen you might write to them.  I wasn't able to find any groups that seem to have as much activity for adults.  This group also has experts as well as parents who answer questions, and they're extremely knowledgeable.
