my main OCD thing is the tv volume must be on a 5 or 0 like 10-15-20ect...and when i lay down the middle of the tv must be even with my face/head on the pillow.

Not OCD at all, but I do play some repetitive games

I don't have any OCD I'm aware of. I never watch tv so dont care about the volume numbers, not that I would if I did watch tv. I wash my hands like anyone else would (tho probably a bit more, but it's not an OCD to wash for 4 seconds instead of 2!)

Lol, I do this as well. xD

This could be the worst poll and/or topic of all time.

That said, this is posted on a forum that is mostly WoW-related...so I guess the "repetitive games" option would relate to just about everyone on here.

EDIT:

Hey i think we fount your OCD *bashing topics cause you got nothing better to do* are we right.

[mittacc]

I plot evil plans :>

joke aside, i'm paranoid about locking doors :P Also i have to look up words i didn't know about before!! (like OCD)

[LeVvE]

Volume (5-10-15-20 etc), pixel perfect UI/desktop or it feels broken and sloppy and I rather delete the whole game/program, programs always need to be the latest version, HATE when people don't type their name with a capital at the start (like the guy above).

Thats all I can think of right now but I'm sure I got plenty more.

I wash my hands like 20 times a day but thats only cus I don't like to feel dirty.


Like that :P

Gee, it's like you're new here or something.

[TEHPALLYTANK]

Nothing in the poll to quite reflect mine, my compulsions aren't what may be considered standard(I don't flip light switches on and off x number of times before leaving a room, I don't turn stuff off and on for no practical reason). I have certain thoughts that are repetitive that I have a lot of trouble stopping at times, I can get really bent out of shape over simple things being wrong(Their/There/They're is one of them). People using the wrong gender to refer to an animal (both fantasy and real, my guild gets on my nerves when referring to nefarian and deathwing as "she").

I'm going to go put all my albums in non alphabetical order in the vain hope Nicki Minaj might die...

I can't stand her...

I used to be OCD as hellllll when I was younger, but now? now I just don`t give a damn lol.

My room used to have to be PERFECT, perfectly clean. I would clean it, clean everything, move stuff around, dress my bed. I would stand in the corner just behind my door, and stare at my room from it to make sure everything was perfect. If I got home and something was moved or cleaned I`d be so mad. I also used to hate having my fingers feel greasy, so I`d rub them on my clothes, even the soapy feeling. I hated the tag on my shirt. lol, but like I said.. that was when I was younger, everything i just mentioned is totally opposite now.

I have sanitary OCD. If I even imagine there being a speck of dirt, I'll wash again. I also follow patterns... I do not step on sidewalk cracks, I have to count the stairs each time I go up or down, when I brush my teeth I move the bristles across my teeth exactly 600 times in 12 different areas, my hair must be perfectly straight, I split food like hamburgers so that I eat tomatoes first, then pickles, then lettuce, then cheese, and then burger + condiments+bun, I have orders for just about everything I do, when I cook I get everything out, line it up according to time of use and aligned with the vehicle that they will be put in and then restore them to this order with a red pencil to separate still to be used vs used, books have to be pushed until their covers on the shelves are in an exact flat line, when I cross a street i look right to left 5 times exactly and then right left again when I'm in the middle of the street, if I measure anything I will have it exactly on the line it should be or not at all.....

Ya, it goes on and on from there. But I'm sane, I promise.

I think that is just impatience at stupidity and not OCD.

I'll trade you for my flatmate. She leaves messes at everything she touches.

Seriously though, I don't think there is anything wrong with routines as long as they don't overshadow other aspects of your life.

I for one, am much less routine, but I get "stuck" on certain types of thoughts and situations. I still have to approach them in a specific, neurotic way, but I have to create a new method each time.

I check the oven/stove half a dozen times after I've turned it off, and check to make sure the doors are locked 2-3 times before I go to bed.

I do this, but I only do it cus it takes me 5min to forget if I did lock the door or turn off the oven :P

[Creotor]

Somewhat above mildly obsessive about some things, I suppose. Mostly - re-checking my actions out of fear that I've done something wrong/haven't done it at all. Then again, I am quite often forgetful, so maybe it's not OCD, but a completely rational fear.

[DeltrusDisc]

Interesting poll, I like it! I'm at the point of washing my hands.... a lot.
