Ooooh the rinse cup thing. I swish a glass out three times before I drink from it. Only if drinking water though. Anything else I just grab a glass from the cupboard. I think I just do it so the waters cold though. Something to do while the taps running

I don't smoke

This'll sound odd. It's quite hard to explain.

Sometimes I will move my feet or my legs in a weird pattern. Like, say I flick my left foot forward randomly. I then have to do my right. And then I do that again in the reverse order. I keep doing this until I lose track of which order I started in/I think "what the **** are you doing?"

Always 3 sprays of aftershave.

I mess my hair up if I'm nervous.

I won't pee at a urinal, and in a cubicle I aim for the sides of the toilet bowl because I hate making a noise.

When making tea I stir clockwise and then one stir counter-clockwise.

I only read in the bath.

You do that too?
I've finally found someone else that does this!

- I drank water from a glass that had an awful soapy taste still from when it had been washed. Ever since, I always need to rinse the cup/glass several times before drinking.
- The volume has to be an even number.
- If I ever turn around the full 360 degrees (even sat on a swivel chair) I always have to turn 360 degrees back the other way like I'm unwinding myself. lol
- I always sleep with one hand under the pillow and in the fetal position.
- I pick the dry skin from my bottom lip to the point it starts bleeding. Sounds gross but I like it.
- At work, my desk has to be ordered with things in the correct place. Pen kept on the top of my keyboard, drawers locked until I need to go in them, paper etc in my trays have to be neat. I get wound up when I come in after a few days off and see someone's sat at my desk, my pen's missing, drawers unlocked etc.

Can't think of anymore.

I was the same as a kid. If I walked around a tree I'd have to walk back around the other way. Or if I spun in a circle I'd have to spin back

I used to be worse when younger, there was a stage that whatever I did with my right side I had to do with my left. If I touched something I had to touch it with both hands and at an even amount of times. Brushing up something with me left side Id have to turn the other way and brush up with my right, stepping on cracks with left and right feet etc.

Im like that with my work, im paranoid i'll lose it all.
And I used to have a phase like that, was stupid lol

I thought I was the only one.

And another one is my desktop has to be completely clear. It makes me stressed out if I have a load of random files all over the place in no order or with no clear labels.
Unlike my cousin who always keeps every single thing on the computer to the point it runs at a snails pace. I have to delete things I don't use.

[mizzy25]

Going by a lot of replies on this thread, people seem to be getting confused by a complusion/obsession - and thinking of (good or bad)habits instead.

I have to delete recorded stuff off Sky+ once watched. It bugs me if it's not gone right away

[Harry!]

Me downloading videos over the last 25 days /joke.

[Mr XcX]

I love cleaning my house and my garden is nice and proper.

[Stacey.]

-Always have to wash my hands at least once before I eat or something
-Checking my alarm about 5 times to make sure it's switched on and set at the right time
-When I'm not watching the telly, it has to be turned right down to 0 volume aswell as being muted
-When I eat crisps I have to touch the bottom of the bag inside twice before they're "finished"
-Sometimes count how many times I chew
-Count how many steps I do, and if there's like squares, I have to step between them both with my left and right foot
-When I glue something, all the corners have to be stuck down properly
-All my pictures folders have to be named in the same way
-I have to sit on the right side of a bus
-Have to wash out a glass with water about 3 times before I pour an actual drink in it

There's probs loads more too. *feels seriously ocd*

My mum drives me mad doing that. She's constantly wiping things off and then innocently says "Oh, I thought you'd watched it".

That's quite a weird one, lol.

[Judas]

- Always have to tap my cigarettes up and down 2 times on each side... so it doesn't even 'level them'...
-Same with the water and glass, just not any other drink.

[LemonJam]

I have a specific outfit that I always wear if I'm hungover, including socks.
When I have coloured sweets I like to line them up to see which comes up the most and least.

[fizzybee]

I count syllables in words and they always have to be in even numbers.
The volume on my TV has to end in either a five or a zero.
With fruit I have to inspect every aspect of it (firmness, colour, etc)
Also on my TV I always have to have subtitles on, in case I miss any words.

I'm clearly misunderstanding how that one works.....

Computer is comprised of 3 syllables. How do you count that word in an even number?

Well, sentences mostly.

If it ends in an even number, then I'm happy, if it's not then I'm just... not.
