I personally love chaos. The more things are out of routine the better I like it. Of course there are habits that I have like I always get a cup of coffee in the morning, read the news etc. But are habits a taste of OCD. That is an interesting question.

Yeah something like 80-90% of the population experience obsessions and/or compulsions. They are relatively "normal" things to experience.. OCD is only experienced when the person has obsessions or compulsions that impact on their daily life functioning, and they find them VERY distressing.. It's all on a continuum just like many other concerns we have..

Yes I believe that too.
I always put my pants on before my shirt, although it doesn't make any difference really.
I can't stand the feeling of being sweaty or dirty in any way, and I take showers all the time.
When I feel tense, I often count the seconds as they pass.

Yes. I can not stand to have dirty or clammy hands, I wash them at least every half hour.
