People have always described me as being obsessive and paranoid, but recently i've wondered if it's something more. I have quite a lot of the OCD symptoms and I am only 14 years old, and a girl, by the way.
I'm not really stressed about contamination and germs, but I HATE touching rubbish or litter and anything to do with strawberries. I totally hate strawberries. Whenever I smell, touch or even think or look at strawberries I feel sick. Touching rubbish makes me feel ill and if I touch rubbish from then on my day is a complete mess because I then feel contaminated.
Before bed I always have to completely tidy up my room and everything has to go in the right place - my music stand always goes in the same place on my carpet, my sofa has to be pushed into the right angle, everything has to go where it was before, etc. I always clean myself in the exact same routine twice a day, everyday, and if it doesn't go right I can't get to sleep well. And I always seem to check under my sofa about three times plus to see if i've left anything under there, even though I know i've already checked. And my curtains have to be evenly drawn.
I can also be very bossy if things don't go right and people find this annoying when i'm doing group work at school. I'm very obsessive with puntuation for a 14 year-old girl, as many people have noticed and you can probably tell. Oh yeah, and I do this weird thing sometimes where I hear words in class or from the TV, then trace the word with my finger on my leg. Why? It's strange. And I don't avoid people that much, but I avoid places in the internet that I know I will get obsessed with. Sometimes I have thoughts that could be considered inappropriate and I try to get rid of them as soon as possible because they can be disgusting or weird and I hate thinking them. My mind tends to wonder a bit. And I love cleaning my room - it makes me feel happy. Though can people with OCD fall out of some routines? Sometimes I don't tidy my bedroom, but then I lose lots of stuff (which I hate) and my life is a muddle when my room isn't clean. I am a FREAK when I am cleaning. I hate any dust and I feel like screaming when I can't get rid of dust! Everything has to be symmetrical, straight and I hate it when the books on my bookshelf aren't in the right order. The list goes on.
I know i've written a lot but this isn't even all of what I could say. I'm too embarassed to go to the school nurse or my family doctor incase I don't actually have OCD. I've mentioned OCD to my mum and she thinks the whole idea is stupid and so does my dad. Please help! I need advice badly!
