    Default Re: I'm a little OCD...

    The only time I say that I am a "little OCD" is when I have to check if the front door is locked before going to bed... multiple times.

    The thing that drives me crazy is lying in bed and suddenly feeling the need to go check again, even though I *know* that I already checked three times. I can't settle down and go to sleep until I go down and check once again.

    Some nights I am fine, some nights I have to check about 4 times. I feel lucky that it isn't full blown OCD and I have to check more than that, but I feel that I can empathize to a degree with the frustration of having a compulsion that you know is irrational, and not being able to relax until you address the compulsion.
