So I've a feeling... and I was told... that I'm at least a little bit Obsessive Compulsive. Definitely not full, but I do meet some of the definitions.
I noticed it when I was little, I'd have to click my teeth as we passed each house, and if I missed one I'd feel completely horrible. Or I would completely obsess over missing a sign or something, as I'd get the feeling I'd never know what it said and I'd get anxious.
Its a little weird, and some friends think its funny. Like if we're working on an assignment I always correct an obvious spelling mistake and say "Sorry, it was bugging me" or I'll correct the formatting or something like that.
Its an interesting quirk really, but I didn't actually think it was anything unusual until someone pointed it out.
Symptons
Hoarding - If you know me, you know I do this on Gaia and in real life. I cannot throw things away or get rid of them. I could sell all of my old GameBoy games, but I don't, I've gotta keep them in my cupboard. If someone's given me a card, I cannot throw it away.
On Gaia I hate selling items and feel a pang of regret when I see its gone. Same with gold, I hate spending it as watching those numbers drop when the sale is made makes me sad.
Touching or tapping - I'm always figeting and tapping. Just a natural state for me.
This website is really interesting, but depressing as the more I read it the more I notice it is describing me.
