I've not actually been diagnosed with OCD, but i've thought i've had it for about 3 years.. it just started developing more after I finished college really.
I noticed I keep checking things (especially hair straighteners) and windows over and over when i'm about to leave the house. I used to check my wrists and hands for blood before I went to bed every single night but that seems to have stopped (i've never cut in my life nor will I ever), and I never thought it was strange to do that? I just did it as a nighttime routine otherwise i'd go to sleep restless.
Now I check the doors on my car over and over to make sure they're locked before I leave it and that all the windows are shut properly. Even with people sitting in their cars watching me do it, I just think to myself they don't know me or anything about me and it's what I need to do so I do it.
Do you think it could be OCD?
