What are you OCD about?

To balance out our gross thread from yesterday. What is something you are OCD about? 

Re: What are you OCD about?

  • I have to have DS's toys picked up off the floor. I cannot stand to see them (or even a few) spread out when he is not using them. 
  • Ugh, I count everything. Literally, it's ridiculous. I count the steps I take when I'm walking, I count the number of times people blink, I count bird chirps, I count knocking noises, I count the number of kisses my husband gives the baby or me, hand clapping, chewing, hair brushing. Every action or noise that happens more than once in a row I will subconsciously count.
    I am only annoyed by it when something only happens 7 times. I hate the number 7.... I may be genuinely OCD lol

    My husband doesn't believe that I do this non-stop and will test me by doing things 7 times. It is so upsetting but it's funny to me :P

  • I am crazy OCD about putting on lotion from head to toe, every time I get out of the shower.... absolutely no exceptions. To add, it HAS to be Vaseline Intensive Care's Cocoa Butter.

     

    Also, I am a neat freak. I hate clutter and things looking out of place. I have managed to keep my house pretty stinking clean since LO has been here and grown, but I have a feeling that as she gets older I am going to need to learn to let things go.

    I taught DS the clean up song! LOL "Clean up, clean up, everybody everywhere, Clean up, clean up, everybody do your share!"

    This is me too-- even to the brand of lotion.  I love that stuff.

    Most of my OCD is about personal grooming for me and LO and my clothes/ LO's clothes.

  • - Picking up DS' toys  off of the floor and putting them all in his toy bin.

    - I count things a lot.

    I am OCD about my house being clean. Like if I know the floor hasn't been swept in 2 days I wont go to bed until I sweep it. Ugh

  • -When I wash my hands I only use burning hot water. I mean to the point where the steam is coming from the faucet and my skin is bright red.

    - I wash my feet throughout the day. I will sit in the bathroom and soak them probably about 3-5 times daily.

    -Things on shelves need to be placed a certain way. I hate things head on, I like everything on an angle.

    -I can't sleep unless I have blanket or shirt covering my eyes. I can't use sleep masks because they freak me out and I find them really weird.
  • Germs! I am a teacher and wash my hands five million times a day!

    A lot of things my dh is convinced that I'm OCD. Since everything has to be in its place or it bugs me. I don't count things but I like things in group of two's and I don't like odd numbers. I hate when people put their sticker on their lincese plate wrong. I have to wash my hands all the time so my hand are always red and cracked. :(
