If You Are Not OCD, Then You Have A Boring Little Life.

Actually sucks most of the time.

Thanks for the not so helpful thread

I have CDO. It's like OCD, but in alphabetical order as it should be.

You have not one clue about what you just said. You have no place or authority to tell anyone what to do. Clown.

Id rather have a boring life than to have unwanted thoughts all fucking day. Not to mention checking my body and house looking for something to go,wrong. Noticing even the slightest change in something and obsessing over it. Ill trade my OCD for boring anytime. Its a miserable existence that I wouldnt wish on my worst enemy. IT SUCKS.

Can't remember the 70s comedian who said that

It's very hard.

I have the opposite of OCD its called CBF

help

Me either. I never forgot it though. Stephen Wright??

This.

Ignore the first 4 seconds.

OCD is not a disorder.

The disorder is in everyone else's life.

Unfortunately, this is not true.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder(OCD)is a disorder in every sense of the word.

OCD can manifests itself in a variety of ways. It isn't always just hand washing. It is intrusive and distressing thoughts. Repeated actions and bodily harm. It is also the overwhelming feeling of guilt, and the inability to release your mind from unnecessary fixations.

OCD can be embarrassing if you have a physical manifestation of it (like facial twitching, for ex.). It also slows down your mental progress because of intrusive thoughts inhibiting idea creation.

In it's worst forms, OCD simply becomes anxiety. Anxiety, if prolonged, can result in depressive episodes. Even thoughts of suicide.

Anxiety and obsessions...these may AT FIRST feel like they give you an edge and extra-sensory capabilities. But I assure you, they almost always end up to be crippling you in boughts of paranoia, and eventually depression.

It is a chemical imbalance that I would recommend people who suffer from it to seek treatment, especially if it affects your livelihood. I know some people who indeed overcome it without treatment. But most of us aren't that lucky.

Pity you are so negative, and have no control over your mind. I have the OCD, and use it to advantage every day. I live The Dream In Reality.

OCD is a mental disorder. In order to qualify as having a mental disorder, your life has to be negatively impacted by your actions and thoughts. If you aren't negatively affected by it, then you do not have a mental disorder. You do not have OCD. You're probably just very organized and careful and anal retentive.

OR maybe you have OCPD

I call it "reorder"

Sounds better

Yes, me running my hands over every outlet twice and saying "unplugged" before I can leave the house will lead to great discoveries and accomplishments.

No I don't. No I don't. No I don't.

I've got a touch of OCD, and here is where it gets into the disorder spectrum. At work and at home, I prefer to have things in specific orders all the time. My wife, God Bless her, tends to not do things in an orderly way such as I would prefer. I like to rotate my socks so that they wear out evenly, and she'll just toss them in the drawer without regard to their disorder.

A really silly one is that I like my beers in the refrigerator to be evenly spaced and in straight lines, whereas she'll just shove 'em in the fridge however they wind up.

I can't even get started about how things are at work, except suffice to say that people are generally slobs and I get tired of picking up after their lazy asses.

I think that these factors kind of touch on the spectrum of disorder.

By its very defintition, You dont have OCD if you have control of your mind. Consider yourself lucky.

O = Obssesive/Intrusive Thoughts of which you have no control over. They are unwanted. They are not controlled. They happen constantly and can be very tormenting.Its like a loop in your mind that you cannot break.

C=Compulsions. Things you feel you must do in order to bring comfort or temporary relief from those thoughts. Ie..Checking things, rituals, etc. You know that its nonsensical but the urge to do them is there. There is genuine fear involved. Its very real.

D= Disorder. Ie...youre not right.

Now i will admit that having OCD can be beneficial in some ways. I am/have always been the best at anything I ever do. With any job ive ever held, in short time I am always, without exception, considered to be the best at it.
With Art, or any other detailed activity, people would consider me a natural talent. But the truth is that I just obsess over things and they must be right. Most people know when to stop. I dont. I keep going with everything I do and therefore it appears that I excel at Everything!
But again, Id trade it all away just to be normal.
The way you Define OCD tells me you do not have OCD. Congratulations, you dont understand and I hope you never have the misfortune of truly understanding what I am saying.
Perhaps you are just persistent or perfectionistic but definitely not OCD.

Socks?

I don't know if I have OCD because it's not entirely consistent and there were many years I was "symptom" free. Right now I'm doing fine, just have a bit of anxiety. Though other times, sometimes years at a time, I had it full blown and it destroyed and took over every single minute of my day. Yes, the result of any type of work I had done was excellent - but it was not worth the toll it took. I think I just have anxiety and when that gets bad enough it transforms into a type of OCD. The kind where you have to double check or quadruple check everything and everything is "what if" and the images in your head are horrifying and you can't stop them. Distractions helped a little. Getting out of town helped sometimes. Moving away helped me once.

Hitlers in training.

OCD is great. You get a lot done.

You clean under my ashtray one more time its going to be permanently in your life!

This is true, its fine to a mild degree sorting out papers and what not, they will always be perfect.
But please stop washing out my cups, they have been washed dried and hung up, the dust from the air will not hurt them.

It's code-word for the powers that be to keep you playing a victim. Fuck them all!
