insight (OCD glossary)
For someone with OCD, this is the understanding (when not triggered by an obsession) that one's worry is not realistic, nor does the logic applied to the person's ritual make any sense. Usually when one is triggered or experiencing high anxiety about an obsession, the level of insight decreases dramatically.
