i think i have it, but for me it's not being overly clean. It's counting usually odd numbers 17, 33 15,... equally touching something with one hand and the other hand, hitting the keys on this keyboard 17 times when i type in my website, my email, whatever..

I do. My form is known as scrupulosity--an obsession with the spiritual part of my life, specifically ones own sins. It is like a stabbing pain in my mind and has raped me to no end. As a Christian, I constantly feared that I would go to hell for not being "spritual enough", not "repenting enough", not being "holy enough", etc.etc. This lead to self-destructive behaviors on my end including suicidal thoughts, major anxiety attacks, depression, and more. It has taken medication and years of psycho-therapy to help me become somewhat "normal" today though I still struggle with it and may always struggle with it. If you are interested, check out my blog at http://thesacredjourney.blogspot.com as I have recorded much of my journey in here. God bless you in your journey towards wholeness.
