Addiction

Yeah, I have obsessive compulsions. My house is usually neat and tidy (largely because of my presence), and I can never be comfortable in rooms that are even mildly cluttered. Lots of these compulsions extend beyond just order and neatness though, many are bodily, and those are the most troublesome. I often succomb to compulsions such as oral picking, excessive blinking, and (for lack of a better term) symmetrical touching.

The farthest back I can remember having obsessive compulsions is probably when I was around 5 or 6. I would always whisper to myself what I had just said aloud after I spoke to make sure that it sounded right, and I still do that to this day.
