I don't think this is normal...?

Question

Sometimes, when I do things, I have to make sure everything is done my way and do what I want to do, for example if I put a can of Pepsi on the right side of me, I might have to have it on the left side. If I don't do it, I get really mad and uncomfortable...is this some sort of disorder?

And another thing.. I can purposely make my eyes blur. And usually when I look at something, something random, It forces itself to blur. Especially when I looks at trees from far away. Sometimes I even do it without noticing that I actually am doing it. Does anyone else have these problems?

Answer 1

OCD i have it. REEEEEEEEEALY bad. it controls my life.

Answer 2

It sounds like OCD to me. I would go to the doctor to make sure. It's nothing bad really, but he might be able to tell you ways to cope with it.

Answer 3

the first one sounds like classic OCD

and as far as i know the second is completely normal and anyone can do that

Answer 4

Gosh the pepsi can thing could be a number of things. You could be from a controlling family and be out of control with everything else in your life so the pepsi can or whatever else you may obsess over is your way of setting your own limits. You could be a perfectionist. You could have OCD or at least the beginnings of it. You could have  slight anxiety disorder. You simply may just like your pepsi on the left. If you see these behaviors carry over to where it disrupts your daily life see your doctor. Good Luck!!

Answer 5

This may slightly resemble OCD but true OCD consists of "rituals".  Just consider yourself picky.  

As for your eyes blurring I'm kinda confused...1st you said you do this purposely then said when u look at objects your eyes are focing themselves to blur.

Answer 6

i am more confused then you are arghh http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

Answer 7

Not every quirk is a mental disorder.  If your Pepsi-like fixations are extreme and cause you a lot of personal grief - that is, beyond the distress of wondering if there's something wrong with you - or if they cause tension with other people, then yes, you might consider seeing a doc to see if you have an OCDish condition that can be treated.

But do keep in mind that human beings are meant to have a little of what we'd call "personality" ...our little traits that make us unique.  If that's all it is, then I'd say enjoy it.  Don't stress about it.

Answer 8

i think you may have OCD ( Obsessive Complusive Disorder)

I have it too

I used to feel uncomfortable and i couldnt stop thinking about something if it was done on one side but not the other. But i learned to control my self.

I also used to wash my hands alot ( well, i still do btu im trying to was hthem less because my hands wer strting to wrinkle)

Answer 9

The first one like everyone else said is a sign of OCD.

The second one is just what I like to call "Spacing out" and is pretty much normal.
