In response to the door knob situation, I can't tell you how many times I've made myself late because of that feeling of "touching or seeing it wrong" door knobs, words, it all has to "feel right and comfortable" to me before I can let it go.

The worst is when you do it right, then as you are hurredly trying to exit the room or the situation, your foot gets hung up or something profoundly rediculous like you get distracted. And you glance at the object of your obsession again, and you're right back in the damn cycle of trying to do it right so you can let it go and move on! AHHHHH!

When I was about 9 (I'm 27 now), I had this thing I would do that if my older brother would say a cuss word, like fuck or shit, I would have to reverse it by balling my fist up and puting it right in the middle of my head and ask god to forgive him for cussing. The strange thing is I've never even prayed like that in my life except to reverse his bad language! HAHA. I'm curious to know, how many of you clean with your own spit?

lol i'm pretty sure i dont have ocd so i probs shouldn't be here but yeah i used to do the mario thing all the time, usually to a beat i had in my head.

Also thinking about it i used to have to do something in order to stop something bad from happening....even though it was totally irrational.

Aaaaand i kinda have a fear of vomiting, so on the rare occasions i did, a long time after the day it happened i would get sketched out going in the same place it happened, especially when it was the same day of the week.

But this was when i was a kid mostly.

hmm I don't think I've ever done anything particularly crazy. I just get a bit paranoid over the usual things like securing door locks, taps, fridge doors and obsessing over some other thoughts...

I do the mario thing too (minus the butt cheeks)! I also personify inanimate objects all of the time, even though I know it's rediculous. I know exactly what you mean about the guilt thing.

If I'm writing something, like a letter, and I make a mistake then I normally have to start it all over again. It really annoys me but in my mind crossing out things is messy Very Happy I think I am too much of a perfectionist lol Rolling Eyes

I once spent the whole night walking around in circles, I must have done it for atleast like 4 hours. I've also just written an entire page of the word why.

This might not have been caused by OCD, but today I repeatedly smelled a a few fingers on my left hand because they smelled like semen. Shocked
