Your OCD

BabyCarryingVessel · May 2013

Candace's post made me realize that we all probably have a touch of OCD... Let's hear about your weird obsessive habits.

Mine, my alarm clock must never be set on the hour, half hour or quarter hour. To wake at 6:30 on the dot is too square! It must be set on a weird time, but it may not end in 1 or 6. So 6:34 is acceptable, but not 6:36 or 6:31.

The toilet paper has to be on correctly as in over not under.

Pahahaha I swear we could be friends. When I worked, my alarm was set on 7:24. I also am anal about having 2 of everything so things can be symmetrical. If I were to have 1 tall vase on my mantle and not another tall one on the opposite side, I swear I would go frucking insane.

The clock in my van must be 6 minutes fast. I can't be late but not too early. I like to arrive 2 to 7 minutes early.

Eta 2 to 7 not 27. I hate mobile...

When I enter time into the microwave it's always the same number... so 1 minute 11 seconds or 33 seconds or 4 minutes 44 seconds. Drives my husband nuts.

Oh oh lets do our SO's weird crap!!!

When MH is extra stressed, he smells his right index finger. He used to hide it but now apparently he knows I wont make fun of him so he just sniffs the ever loving crap out of it!

If our bed is made, it has to be perfect. No little bunched up places, wrinkles, unorganized pillows...otherwise it can't be made at all.
...I generally have to remake the bed after DH makes it.
I'm also a little crazy about cleaning my kitchen counter, I will go to eye level to make sure there are zero crumbs.

All my blinds have to be the same direction, level of open, windows too, if I am airing out the house.

I try to resist most urges as my brother (who has schizophrenia) was originally dx with OCD and still has a lot of symptoms seems to increase my risk of going down the rabbit hole.

I cannot handle blankets inside out or upside down. The tag MUST be at the bottom, and any decoration MUST be on the outside. Always.

YES!!! DH drives my absolutely INSANE with this. he'd sleep with a sad wad of blanket on him if I let him.

Eeew! Husband turns the comforter sideways in his sleep. I will be up spinning it back around at 3am when I wake up to pee. LOL

The blankets on my bed also have to be laid out perfectly. DH wraps the bottom of the sheet under his feet at night and it drives me crazy.

I've also got issues with color coodinating. Once I start a project for work in black pen, the entire thing must be in black pen. I'll stop working to go buy a black pen before I use a different color. Same goes with highlighters. And if I highlight someone's name that shouldn't be highlighted, I'll end up reprinting that page! Good thing I found these erasable highlighters...

These are comical. Sad I missed bumping yesterday!

These make me feel better about my ocd. I have so many but some of my biggest are when I'm out at a restaurant, everything has to be straight on the table, toilet paper dispensed on top, pen ALWAYS has to be the same color, hand towels have to be folded right.
