That's not OCD.
That's called a habit. OCD is when you keep on wiping your mouth until the skin around it is raw. As for me, I have none. Just a lot of habits. - Chinkieeyedpnoi |

Worries, doubts, superstitious beliefs all are common in everyday life. However, when they become so excessive such as hours of hand washing or make no sense at all such as driving around and around the block to check that an accident didn't occur then a diagnosis of OCD is made. In OCD, it is as though the brain gets stuck on a particular thought or urge and just can't let go. People with OCD often say the symptoms feel like a case of mental hiccups that won't go away. OCD is a medical brain disorder that causes problems in information processing. It is not your fault or the result of a "weak" or unstable personality. |

For example, a schizophrenic might see a cat as a demon one day, and a normal cat the other. Damn, how the hell do I know all these things? - Chinkieeyedpnoi |

I have a really slight case of OCDs...not the kind where you wipe your mouth raw. From what mznina put as a definition of OCDs, I know do possess a bit of it. Not enough that I'm crazy or I need to see the doctors..lol but it annoys me!
Example: When I tap one foot...my mind keeps on telling me it's uneven, it bugs me if I don't tap my other foot. Or that's not a sign of OCD...oh well, I don't really mind ![]() |

I have OCD in the case that I always make sure the doors are locked when leaving the car, if the garage door is closed after leaving the house, or if I had properly locked the door to the entrance of the house. Basically, I worry about whether everything is secure or not, and if I'm not sure, I tend to worry excessively.
:Edit: Okay, that might not necessarily be a sign of OCD, but I know I tend to wash my hands a lot even when it may not be that dirty and I wanna make sure it's clean. That, on the other hand, might be a sign. |

I don't have one but I read a book called Kissing Doorknobs where I learned more about it. Everytime the girl in the book opened the door, she had to place her fingers the same exact way over the doorknob. She had to place it a certain way and if she didn't , she wouldn't open the door until she did. She tried once 55 times...now that's OCD.

I used to think i had ocd till i read that book.
Its when ppl have to do thinks on a regular bases, and they have to do it in the exact order and the exact same way. Am i right? |

Hmm...would you call it obsessive-compulsive if everything has to be in order? If nothing cannot be perfect? Hah I remember that when my good friend Krissy was signing my yearbook, she wrote something in it with ink I didn't want her to use because it was black and she signed her message in pink. It really upset me. I kept staring at it, as if it was going to change if I glared at it long enough. Haha. Or, with my homework...everything has to be perfect, from the font size to spacing to the actual paper...hmm...or on the computer, everything has to be aligned. Is that obsessive-compulsive?
