bedtime ocd.

[kjadam2009]

everynight before i go to bed, i have to check my gas cooker constantly, & turn switches off in a way which i do every night, i then go to bed, and mess around with my bed, but for the past 4 nights i've not done the bed one, even though its been hard, when will it get any easier?

i used to be the same with the iron... i used to take a picture of it on my phone so when i went out i could look at the picture to make sure I'd turned it off . I've been pretty good lately though. Don't be too hard on yourself

I have a slight OCD at bedtime where I have to check the plugs and switches etc in the kitchen to make sure everything is safe. I think it's OK to do a bit of checking but it's good to set yourself a limit of maybe only looking at each thing 3 times or something so it doesn't take up too much of your time. Good luck, you can control it!
