It sounds like it might be an anxiety or OCD disorder. You can check out the article I've pasted, it sounds like your friend has some of the symptoms. Tapping supposedly relieves anxiety for these folks.

Sounds like OCD with the fear of bad luck. All these things you describe sound like ways of preventing something bad from happening or occuring. Or it could just be the way they functions. or maybe a case of hyperness.

OCD most likly i a
