Is this normal or do I suffer from some kind of condition?

Question

recently, I have found my self to be rather repetative and going 'Over the top' with things in my life & internet. For example, when i talk to my friends via instant messaging (sorta like email), we would usually have some fun, like flooding the chat window, It usually lasts until a minuite until my friend says stop. But I sometimes can't stop my self from continuing. And as a result, my friend will sometimes have to block me/Ignore for a few mins until I forget about it. I've never really had this before until recently.
I've heard of disorders like this where the person is repetative. I'm starting to wonder if I may have one.

Answer 1

I would not recommend that you diagnose yourself just yet. However, it does seem that you may have come symptoms of Compulsiveness: Repetitive behaviors or mental acts that the person feels driven to perform in response to an obsession, or according to rules that must be applied rigidly. The behaviors or mental acts are aimed at preventing or reducing distress or preventing some dreaded event or situation; however, these behaviors or mental acts either are not connected in a realistic way with what they are designed to neutralize or prevent or are clearly excessive.

I would talk with your Primary Care Physician, or a local Mental Health Counselor (your local Health Center may have free services).

Good luck.
