I count everything. Like I'll be sitting in a room with people and I count them, when one person leaves, I'll recount all of them, they come back, I'll count them all again, no matter if there's a lot or just a couple, I can't help it, the thing is, it doesn't matter how many times I count something or the number that comes up each time, it only matters how many there are at the time I finish the last counting before leaving that area, it gets worse the more stressed I am.

Yes, I can't stop myself from playing Free Cell while on the phone near my computer! lol
EDIT:
Looking at the number of points you have since last March, I wonder if you aren't compulsively going to Yahoo Answers?

I overthink everything, and double and triple check everything. If I don't, I sit there wondering until I get up and check. I've tried to stop, but I figure it is just the way I am. Eventually I'll be old and crazy, so I don't really worry about it, though I do wish I could stop!
Now I'm off to make sure my roomate locked the door...

I have ideas in my head how things (parties, holidays, plans, dinner, etc) should turn out, and when they don't I have a panic attack. I also have to go in order at the grocery store, so I don't miss anything. If I can't do things perfectly, I avoid them.
