I dont suffer it myself, but that's not a bad idea,though now that you have started a thread, maybe people will start sharing hopefully!

 
Yes, thank you for starting this thread...

Sadly I suffer from it, and I mean proper OCD. I get annoyed when people overuse the word OCD, like when people say if you keep your house clean you're OCD. No!

Quite often with me I get out of bed to check things I've already checked a million bloody times. Checking that the door's locked is bad as well, usually I have to go back to check. Sometimes I notice people have seen and I feel stupid...

I think my worst symptom of it is dripping taps...I feel like a lunatic saying this, but after I turn off a tap, I have to stare at it for 10-20 seconds to make sure it's not dripping...

This is despite me being prescribed mirtazapine and taking all sorts of meds...it makes me despair, nothing ever feels 'right'. =(

I'd like to hear if anyone else has any experiences on the subject.

 
Yeah now that's OCD. I am mildly OCD. Things HAVE to be a certain spot, facing  certain way or I obsess over it. If I decide to buy new bed sheets I will spend hours per day, days on end researching just the right color, stripes, no stripes, thread count AGGGGHHHH. lol I bought a motorcycle and spent more time researching and purchasing parts to upgrade that time actually riding the bike. I get obsessed with research, fact finding, redundancy, I just simply feel the need to control my environment. 

 
OMG! I thought I was just being indecisive, takes me forever to actually buy something, and research and wait,(for what)lol) and then end up buying it. Funny, I thought I was just a little different. I mean even when a buzzard goes off, like dryer micro etc, it drives me crazy till I shut it off.I can clean and if I see one piece of something on floor, gotta pick it up.Weird, hard to focus, but when I do, I will go days looking for the answer I seek. So many dif things.My bro said to me once, you were always a lil bit different, Raz, a step to the side and to the back. Now it makes snese, which really doesn't help me, but good to know why im weird..Lol!  Thank u for bringing the subject up, now I don't feel all alone.You mean they actually give meds to help this? How bad do u have to be? Wait im too old to change

 Take care all, and again, thanks for making me aware of this! Also thank u 4 letting me share my strangeness!

Strangeness is a good way to see it, it's good to see you feel quite happy with the way you are. I'm a bit jealous. My compulsion to triple check doors, dripping taps etc, I can't stand it sometimes.

But you're right, it's something more should be aware of.

 
Well, thanks for understanding what i tried to say! But, hey, if you arent happy with who you are, who else will be? At least I know im not crazy! Theres a word for it! Who knew? Try n have a sense of humor about it! Now Ill know why I just gotta turn off the microwave and know why I do!

That first push when AI was updated to all our phones is when I noticed a lot of changes. unless you have time to download a safe operating system for only pixels, and must paid off. GrapheneOS is thew OS.

  20. LW815 @ LW815: Know what’s really going on in somebody else’s head or how much they’re really dealing with and feel like they’re left with no other options. Been a very sad few days but 2 complete (irl anyway) strangers cared enough about what I was going through to talk to me about it, though they owe me nothing and have no reason to help my personal pain other than the kindness in their own hearts. Just shows that this place is a real community, not just a forum of people who only care about themselves.
