> Can you post the one for OCD? -I tried searching for it, but its not so straightforward.

Sure. Here's the DSM version:
http://www.mentalhealth.com/dis1/p21-an05.html

And, here's the ICD-10 (World Health Organization) version:
http://www.mentalhealth.com/icd/p22-an05.html

Also, there's OC Personality Disorder:

It would count as an obsession, yes.

I hope you use these ideas arising from the diagnostic criteria as thinking points. Have the thought to consider a criterion, but don't allow yourself to go into judgments about it. It is, or it is not. But, it is not bad.

Best,
