OCD or ways of doing things
At different times during the last few decades I’ve had people tell me I show OCD signs, things they refer to I have got used to doing but know they are not the same as most people. Looking for any one else who do similar things or OCD in general.
checking locks, both car and household. After locking the car I find myself manually checking 2 doors to ensure the car is locked. Also use the remote to check the car is locked when I’m couple cars away or physically walk back to check drivers door is locked. Regardless whether front door has been unlocked during the day or not, every night before going to bed I have to check thst the door is locked. Any sliding door or window that has been open during the day I have to check is shut and locked before going to bed. Last thing at night have to check garage roller door is fully down, regardless if I’ve been in garage short while before
colours and order of things. My mind is unsettled unless my wardrobe is in a specific order, this including clothing groups must be hung in colour order. Colouring pencils, books are the same. If not in my colour order it feels like my hands are twitching. Playing solitaire, my mind feels unsettled unless the 4 aces are in a specific order. Laundry has to be hung in specific order including colour with colour of pegs being the same as the item being hung up.
