As far as the bugs go perhaps you had a traumatic experience with them at one time in your life.

The worrying about which way you are going to go and someone else is going to go is just a little bit of anxiety.

I have a feeling that you are a bit insecure and shy. Plenty of people worry about getting in the way of others and plenty of people are frightened of bugs or animals.

It doesn't sound like you have OCD. You need to tell yourself that you are okay and try not to stress so much.

No I dont think has ANYTHING to do with OCD. People have phobias One of yours happens to be stink bugs. I am deathly afraid of spiders. Its a phobia. Not related to OCD

Uh probably not OCD - i think everyone does that - at least I do . but mine aren't with stinkbugs mine are with earwigs.

Doesn't sound anything like OCD at all. One sounds like a phobia, and the other just sounds careful.

it might be. i have major ocd issues and i dont experiance that. it may be like a phobia kind of thing. do a little research online or get an OCD book from barnes and noble. they have some great ones that were really helpful for me.

no that sounds more like anxiety
just take deep breaths and try to relax

haha um...perhaps...but more details please?

the 1st one is just a phobia of bugs

2nd one, yeah possibly...BUT

dude honestly, it doesnt matter if you have ocd, as long as it doesnt interfere with your life too much then youre fine. it's kinda cool to be unique and think differently...

OCD is a mental illness, so if it interrupts your everyday life, then it could be OCD.
I personally think its normal, everyone is scared of something.

sounds more like anxiety...

That does not sound like OCD to me. I have OCD, and the symptoms are more like intense repetition. For example: washing hands 6 times every time you wash your hands, and locking and re-locking your door. It sounds like a real fear of stink bugs, and a spacial issue or anxiety, not OCD. I hope your worries about collisions doesn't keep you from doing things. Good luck. :)
