What are your OCD rituals, impulses, and thoughts?!
Question: If I drop mail in the drawer at the post office I have to drop each letter in one at a time. If I get the mail from my post box at home I have to check to make sure the box is empty after I get the mail. Sometimes I will check while I am standing there. Other times I will get six feet away and have to go back and check.
Sometimes I will count things. I am sure there are a few more but if my confidence is good or I am not under stress I don't always do them.
I became 100% celibate for five months to break away from sexual type things.

i don't have ocd. =)
I hate stepping on lines and cracks and stuff... and whenever I clean my room I clean every square inch of it and spend hours on it
im very OCD when it comes to my alarm clock I think i check it at least 7 times.
haha before i got my license and i was in the car with someone
id tap my leg on whatever side a power post was on.
sometimes i count the panels on the walls and roof in my classrooms.
im anal about which order my markers go in.
for example, the teachers desk in my lit&film class used to be in the center from september until last week.
all of a sudden its on the side of the classroom.
it bugs me and i freak out everytime i see ittt.
theres tons of stuff im OCD about.
i used to have bad ocd when i was a kid, i could only step on white with my right foot and black with my left or lighter/darker colours, u get my drift, i couldnt step on cracks with my left foot but if there was a crack near my right foot i had to step on it....
now im just bad with eating like:
Meat Pie: Top first, then meat, around circle then the bottom
Sausage Roll: Pastry on top, Pastry on bottom then meat
Meat & Vegies: Vegies & Potato and Potato and Meat
haha, i dont know just bad habits, wierd aye!
PS i have to sit on the left side of anywhere and i sleep on the left side of my bed....
Checking to make sure I have my keys in my hand before I lock and shut my car door. I must do it about 12 times.
I can not stand when there are sticker lables in two lines up and down the page and they are not taken off correctly. They should be taken off top to bottom, left to right. God forbid someone takes a label from the wrong side or from the bottom first instead of the top. I have actually fixed them when they are taken off "wrong" oh if someone takes a lable from the middle, I will go postal on them.
i have to have the TV volume on even numbers. actually i prefer even numbers for most things.
need things to be in the right place or i can get a bit antsy.... hang on... maybe I'm not OCD... just clean? lol
also not a big fan of standing on cracks in the pavement (possibly because for years and years i was told if i did i would marry a rat??).
