Now I know that there are loads of people on this site that think they have OCD when they don't and I could definitely be one of them, but I'm still wondering.
I do really stupid things like make sure the bathroom mirrors and rugs are aligned perfectly and make sure the toilet's shut--I can't go to bed or leave the house w/o doing this.
I always check to make sure lights are off, the stove is off, etc.
I make sure numerous times that doors are locked--I can't sleep unless I've checked them at least 4 times each.
I do and say certain things a certain number of times--for example, I have to count to 48 before stepping out of the shower or else I think I'll slip and fall (I know, weird).
I have to say certain things to certain people. For example, if I don't say goodnight to someone, something bad will happen to them and I won't see them in the morning.
Finally, my room is rather messy, as I am NOT a clean freak, but I have a tendency to hold onto unnecessary things.
What do I do?Thank
