Oh I am proper mental mate! Volume on the tele has to be on an odd number n’all.
But I don’t think what I have is OCD. I know that’s what everyone calls it, but I think I’m just orderly.
OCD is actually a mental problem where, for example, you get a random thought in your head like “every wheelie bin in the street has got a cat in it” and you can’t get the thought out of your head until you’ve run round every bin on the street looking if there’s a cat in every bin.
Sometimes it can be mild things like “I have to go round the house switching every plug socket on and off six times before I can go to sleep” to dangerous things like “I have to kill the man at Number 24”!
So I’m just a weirdo rather than being OCD, haha!
Hi
You do have a form of OCD. It’s symmetrical OCD. Where things have to be in order or a certain way.
I’m the same regarding labels, particularly in my wine and spirits cupboard and beer fridge. They all HAVE to face forwards. And my clothes in my wardrobe have to be in a certain order too, colour wise and style.
Have a look up and you’ll recognise your behaviour. Nothing to be concerned about. You just enjoy order in your life.
