I think so, especially because of the creating injury to "even out the pain". I'm sure this seemed necessary to your mind at the time, but it is very disturbing to me. What happens if your pain is uneven? Do you panic? Are you unable to function?
If so, then it is definitely OCD. And it seems that it could possibly become very dangerous for you at some point.
You should take it seriously, it is a serious disorder that will never go away, but can be managed so that you can function and stay safe. Talk to your parents right away. If they know about you hurting yourself they will take it seriously!
Please do not intentionally hurt yourself. Get help.
There are lots of treatments for OCD - therapy, medication, etc. Good luck!

Probably not, if any it will be very minor. You are most likly worry about nothing, we all have random urges to have things even.
I myself will never watch TV when the volume is at an odd number (weird i know!). Yet my bedroom is a junkyard! So im not a neat person.
Theres nothing wrong with these odd reactions, exept for the injury thing. It could end up leading to worse injury and you must refrain from doing it.

I have it and I also do similiar things. but now here is the question if you are going mad when doing these things. if its annoying doing these things, then you have OCD.
