OCD - what do YOU "have to do"? - what are your little habits ?!


Question: eh?

I for example used to pull out my hair....
I bite my tongue and cheek and they bleed and I ahte it and I can't help it.
I also pick at my face....every little bump I can feel, I pick it off.
It sucks.....it makes my face look like I'm a meth head !!!

I also have to look at, and mentally 'stamp' each driveway when I'm on a road....hard to explain

So what do YOU do???

Oh, where do I start? If I go into details it is going to become as long as an essay! Anyway I have to wash my hands - a lot. I also have to do housework in a certain order and I have to get certain things done in that day. I avoid going in crowded places to reduce the risk of getting sick. I also try and stay away from people or hold my breath when people are too close. If I go to a funeral I have to wipe anything touched my me and anyone else who went to the funeral as well as washing my clothes and taking a shower. I wash taps and steralise light switches and door knobs. I have to have a shower before going to bed and I make my husband do the same. Then we both can't touch anything unclean. I steralise towel racks, remote controls and the edge of the bath where we put our clothes. Also I don't read in bed because the book is not clean. I take dettol hand sanitiser everywhere. In church I use it before taking communion as before that we have to pass the collection plate around twice and shake hands with people also. My clothes when they are washed have to be clean. I will wash my hands before touching them. No one is to touch the ironing board either as that needs to be clean. No one can touch my bed or clothes. If someone else dries my dishes when people come over for dinner the next day I will rewash all the cutlery and the plates they touched as well as the surrounding plates. I am going to stop there though...
