when i open a carton of oj or soy milk, i take off the peel-off-thingy and then put the cap back on. then shake it, cause it's a little more space to shake it in.

My habits change: I used to clap three times before sitting, but for now I am taken with writing lists, pulling my hair and rubbing my hands (more like ICD), and walking evenly spaced steps on sidewalks and tile... who knows what's next. Oh yeah, I also have to organize my crayons and coloured pencils before and after using them.

I'm really obsessive about whats on my ipod on a daily basis.

Mainly the podcasts I subscribe to. I get horrible radio reception in my office so I have to podcast EVERYTHING. I have specific times of day for specific shows, and I get really cranky if I break the normal routine.

- i can't step on sidewalk cracks. Haven't since i was about five.
- i can't turn off a car with the music still playing, and if i'm hanging out with a guy and he turns off the car before the song is over, he's automatically and permantly shifted into the friend zone.
- i can't eat or drink anything if i'm on the toilet
- i flush the toilet then run like a motherfucker or just cover my ears and shake
- i hate hate hate being touched with fingertips
- i check any soymilk/oj/whatever cartons to make sure they aren't full of blood before i drink
- i check the refridgerator for blood before i go to bed
- i feel my face to make sure it has't mutated before i can go by a mirror.
- i have to finish my food/drink and i'll finish other people's if they don't. wasting food drives me nuts.

why would you eat or drink on the toilet?

some of you totally have OCD for real style.

I ALWAYS listen to neo soul music when going to bed.
I keep things on the right. (wallet on right back pocket, cell phone in right pocket, keys dangling on right side, and anything else I need to put away.)
I wash my hands all the time, before doing anything.
I always touch my face, like caressing it.
I scratch my head when writing something.
Neat freak, I cant have clothes laying anywhere, I always fold up a shirt when taking one off.
When in line for something, I always tap my heel on the ground.
I always hit home/refresh my myspace page every other minute even if I dont have messages or talking to anyone.

I finish all my food, and scrape all the sauce or other food remains off the plate. And as long as it's not meats, I always try to eat my girlfriend's leftover foods. I don't like wasting foods!

I'm another one with a list.

Usually my OCD only comes out when I get really tired or stressed. But I sometimes find myself:

Typing and deleting words repeatedly in my word processor when I hit a writing block
Refreshing my Myspace page, even when I know there's nothing new coming in
Repeatedly checking to see that my car's locked

Also, I find myself sleeping with my 'kit' of stuff next to my bed, near the nightstand. Wallet, keys, small bag of random gear, sunglasses, car GPS, and other stuff I use to get through the day. Although, that's more so I don't forget anything when I walk out the door.

I am always washing my hands. I can not work or do anyhting with dirty hands. I feel like i am disconected from what i am doing because i can not fully feel what i am doing whil they are dirty.

At work I am an a neat freak. I need to have everyhtintg in its place and neat and tidy other wise i can nto work. The story is completly different at home, I am completly a slob and nothing is ever in its place or neat and tidy. go figure.

I just fall in the weird habits category mostly.

It used to make me crazy when my brother (who does have actual ocd behavior) would watch the same movies over and over, but I have realized I do pretty much the same thing.
- I will listen to the same album on repeat 3 or 4 times in one sitting.
- When I read comic books, I have to create some sort of playlist (either a mix or a specific album) before I can start reading. I rarely do this with regular novels unless I can tell that something epic is about to happen (someone is going to die, etc.) or I am on a train and want to block out everyone around me.
- If I am thinking about a particular song, I will put it on repeat and listen to it maybe a dozen times.

I am also generally a slob, but my CDs all have to be ordered by artist and the year of original release (and not the year of that particular reissue). It is always a pain when I have to move them to a different place because I can never keep them in order when they get packed, and I can't ever remember the exact chronological order of all the damn Belle & Sebastian EPs. Until I take the time to look up the order, those EPs eat away at my soul every time I look for a CD.

Well, no.
But, then, i've never had my face twist into a mask of howling demon fury without my knowing it just in time to walk in front of a mirror, and i haven't broken my mother's back.

but better to be prepared, right?

Also, i remembered:
- i always leave one leg sticking awkwardly out of the pantry door when i'm getting anything, so no one can close the door and lock me in (i live alone)
- i sleep with the covers over my head and my toes CANNOT dangle of the edge of the bed.

OH I FORGOT ABOUT THE FOOD THINGS.

I CAN'T EAT ROUND FOODS (PEAS, ORANGES, WHATEVER)
I CAN EAT ALL OF THE WHITE FOODS (POTATOES, MILK, WHATEVER)
ANYTHING GREEN (LETTUCE LEAVES, VEGETABLES) HAVE TO BE FOLDED IN HALF OR EATEN IN HALVES, AND I HAVE TO LEAVE TWO PIECES
FOODS OF ANY OTHER COLOR I MUST EAT NO MORE THAN 3/4 OF WHAT'S ON THE PLATE
MEATS I EAT 1/3 OF AND IF IT'S A STEAK I CAN ONLY EAT THE OUTER RIM
AND I EAT IT IN A CIRCULAR PATTERN I.E. A BITE OF SALAD, TWIRL FORK, A BITE OF POTATOES, TWIRL FORK, A BITE OF CHICKEN, TWIRL FORK, START OVER.

I AM INSANE.

I can't sleep if the tags on my pillows aren't on the closed end of the pillowcase.

jubs Said:

I do this too. Silverware has to be organized in the dishwasher, by type. I can never, ever, ever, feel any dry skin on my feet, I scrub them every day in the shower. I also eat muliticolored candy in rainbow order, but first I eat them down so there are equal amounts of each then eat one rainbow row at a time. I freak out if anyone I don't know shakes my hand more than once in the same meeting and will wash my hands obsessively for the rest of the day if someone does. I'm sure this one is pretty common but I am very particular about what side of the table I sit at in restaurants or other places because I need to be able to see whats going on. I can only break pieces off cookies and then eat them, I almost never just take a bite right from the cookie. This goes for most things that size. I count everything in threes.

There are so many.... I'm sure I'm forgetting some.
