Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)

GrandOldTeam · March 30, 2009

We all have it a bit.

What weird OCD traits do you have?

Mine is closing doors. I literally can not work, or sleep... in a room with the door open. Serious that too. For some reason, doors have to be shut otherwise my attention is focused on the door being open. Now I have typed and read that, I have just realised I am a right wierdo.

So Patrick Bergin in Sleeping With The Enemy was a bit "misunderstood", eh, Danny?

I've been impressed by the restraint shown about "the brook" though, davek. Respect. (Or did I miss it?)

When I'm in a pub all the beer mats on the table have to be arranged in a symmetrical pattern.

And there HAVE to be 4.

Also, when eating a meal I always make sure that the last mouthful is always the best one. The crispiest chip or juiciest piece of steak.

Don't think that's OCD though, just common sense.

I read that earlier. I was going to bring it up and provide the link but I reckon Tesco are just trying the patience of the Government Inspector with that manoeuvre. Happy to leave it at that.

I do like to arrange things on tables so there are gaps between them all.

Not obsessive about it though really its more just something i do.

I can't stop myself from clicking the mouse buttons when its in my hand, can be very annoying when i click on something i didn't want to.

But thats more of a habit.

I also insist on having food in certain places on my plate and slices of bread for a sandwich have to be the same shape.

But thats probably more just me being fussy.

This is hard.

I do hate having the volume of my stereo at an odd numbered level as well. Other than 13.

I can't go through a day without telling someone to F - Off.

The closed doors sounds very familiar, as does the GOT one.
Also when travelling by coach to any away game with Fortuna, I make sure I'm on the back seat, by the left window. That's one of the pluspoints supporting a small club. Every travelling supporter knows that's my rightfull place. So there's never any trouble getting that seat.
