Is every1 a little bit crazy? or just me?

Question

I'm crazy in some weird ways but not like mental illness crazy just like i do things weird things, like when walking on floor with large tiles (like 1 foot by 1 foot) i only step on some of them when i look at the ground. I unconsciously choose them and idk why those 1s are special, but when i dont look at the floor i can step anywhere without thinking about it. when im walking on a sidewalk i never step on the lines (not cuz i think its bad luck or nuthin but becuz i just dont) and when i do something like tap a table with my left hand i HAVE to do it with my right hand to make it even. and I dont like non-symmetrical stuff. and i h8 styrafoam in like every way possible, i h8 the sound of it and the felling and everything. i have arguments in my head when im deciding if i should do something or not.

i might be semi obsessive compulsive, ive never been tested (i also think im at least semi A.D.D. but ive never been tested fer that either), im in advanced classes at high school so i dont think im retarded.

o and unlike some "crazy" ppl i h8 the numbers 1, 5, 10 , 15, 20 ,25 etc. i prefer strange numbers and my fav numbers are 4 and 7 but i h8 74 but i like 47. and the volume on the tv has to be on a multiple of 5 even tho i dislike those numbers

sometimes i wonder whether im the only 1 who can actually think and i wonder whether any of this is real (kinda like the matrix). i used to think that maybe my entire life time was actually a dream and im only like 1 year old and everytime i sleep i dream an entire lifetime

Answer 1

sounds like OCD. try reading about it online, it may help you understand.

Answer 2

You are in the company of mathematicians and physicists with much the same personal issue, but they were astute enough to make their preoccupations into professional occupations. "Don't sweat the small stuff, if that's all there is." Ever wonder how someone can come up with Fibonacci number series or get a rush working with 'Statistics'?

I say this because you are bright enough to work out in general what your 'thing' might be, and you make reference to AP: look up Scientific American's Martin Gardner for his books and mag columns about Mathematical Games. He makes esoteric stuff look easy: I got off on topology and geodesics.

Luv your last paragraph: see the Indian "Upanishads" for a cosmic fable about Shiva dreaming all we know into existence, and his sleep lasting eons and millenia, that parallels 20th century astronomy.

Answer 3

I think you do you have OCD, especially with the tapping thing. I have that problem with organization, I put all my paperwork at an exact 90 degree angle to the edge of the table or any place where it will make an exact parallel line between the papers and whatever I want it to be next to as an example. It's not weird we all have odd things we do, but if it starts disrupting your life and it's daily routines then you might want to get counseling for it.  

Answer 4

Yes it does sound like OCD. I have OCD too. It's a fairly common 'disorder'. My OCD improved slightly as I got older, but it never goes away completely.  

Answer 5

Actually you sound completely normal.

Well, as normal as the rest of this planet anyway.

Take care, mate.

Answer 6

I think everyone has their own bit of crazy. Different things bother people. There are alot of things that drive me up the wall crazy and things that make my heart melt. I follow patterns and numbers consiously and unconsioulsy, I have to have colors in order and what not... everyone has THEIR thing. So to answer the question: YES

As for the Matrix thing, I used to believe I was like 'The Truman Show' (The Movie with Jim Carry- If you never watched it, YOU SHOULD!) and the whole world was stalking and watching me and everything was a BIG FAT lie. But then I realized that was narcisissistic....whats makes me so dam special?

'

Then when the Matrix came along, though I dont believe that 'the matrix' is possible, if anything the robots would just kill us not keep us around for energy. If you know your sciences you would know that 'humans' would be an unwise choice for energy. But it did make me think, maybe life IS a dream, and there is no such thing as death. Maybe were energy having some psychotic dream and everything is fake? And then when we die, we just keep dreaming, but now just aware that we were dreaming before. SOmetimes I just think that there are beings out there just laughing at how foolish we all are in this small crazy scared world.

Hey? Who knows.

Answer 7

bro that is awesome to know some one doesn't step on the lines of sidewalks i got it bad though i won't step on the lines like parelle or across or any angle ill actually step in little triangles to try and now hit the lines. Lol I always think that im the only one that can think to myself and that other people are being controlled by something else like they aren't actually alive ya know? And thats cool im like that and im not OCD i tend to think things over like and try to realize all the possible out comes of things but as far as numbers no im fine there and oh i have to sit a certain way when i sleep thats another one

Answer 8

it's not just you, don't worry

i do half the things you listed
