OCD

| Y'all got it? I have mild OCD, so it's not a huge problem, just annoying at times. Was curious if any of you g/u/rls got it though.


| How did you get diagnosed?

Well, I went to therapy because I was mentally fucked, and then I did a lot of different tests for lots of different diagnosis, and the test for OCD came out positive but mild.


| Not sure that you can call it a real ocd, but when I'm leaving home without deliberately remembering that I locked the door, I just can't, umm, remember if I locked the door or not. Deliberately is the thing. I can be pretty sure, I can even have a strong picture of me locking the door, but I'm not sure, and it feels unsettling. I can make peace with this unsertainty, but it's still feels bad, that's for sure.


| The only cure for this is thinking while I'm locking the door:"Here. You've locked the door, good, remember it".

Also, when I'm eating m&m's, I'm always sorting them by colour and size. I think I can eat them randomly, but I never do, it just feels wrong.

The door think definitely sounds pretty OCD, especially if you're like that with locking the door and not with other security measures. The second one I feel like is pretty normal though. Everyone has eating habits like that.


| I can remember going back half way from school to check if the door is locked.
I can remember going back from the lab to check if my air conditioner is off.
I can remember checking if I have my keys during meetings.
When I have something to copy, I must check while I'm copying, and after I'm copying, multiple times.

All these things I do, I have proved myself at least 100 times that I don't need them.
And every time, I was always right before checking.
Still do them.
Not OCD tho.

Yeah, that ain't OCD. If it was only the door it very well could be but all of that, no.
