Do I have OCD? Please Help!?

Question

Here's some of the things I do:

Tap my leg, and then I have to tap the other leg the same exact amount of time, other wise I feel like my day wont go the same.

My room is spot less, and I can't sleep if I know something is in the wrong spot.

Fold clothes a certain way.

My hand writing has to be perfect.

And I count things alot, and I can't stand odd numbers.

But I'm not a hygene freak, I don't wash my hands a million times a day, or anything like that. Just I've been noticeing those little things about me.

Do I have OCD?

Or am I just a neat freak?

Answer 1

I don't think you have OCD. I am just the same way. I can't sleep unless I know everything is ready for tomorrow and everything is in place, and sometimes at night when I can't sleep I think of words, sentences or phrases and I have to count the letters in them and I hate it when it's an odd number of letters. I also have to make everything even and even hang things up a certain way or I feel all bothered for the rest of the day. It's just a phase, my sister had the same thing and she's completely normal now.

Answer 2

My sister and I both have the same prob. Dad had it too. count everything, cant rest till things are straight, hate uneven lines and every thing must be colour co ordinated. If I touch a tooth with my tongue, I have to touch the other tooth on the other side, sit on the toilet and line up the tiles on the floor, and count them, every day. Very maddening but must help the stress levels. Thats my excuse. amazing how many have this habit and WONT admit to it as we all think we are crazy in the NORMAL world LOL
