What types of things qualify you as a horder? And of an evening up disorder (physically, as in wetness on one side, needs wetness on the other. NOT tidying)? I'm pretty sure I'm a hoarder.

Well yeah, I just want to know if MY evening up habits and hoarding habits are ocd or not.
Most soda bottles I like to keep for water bottles. I always keep containers for items I buy such as hardware and software. Whenever I turn around 180 degrees counter clock wise the next turn should add up to 180 degrees clockwise and vice versa. Ex: If I turn around to look behind me, and start walking that way, I can make as many turns in the desired direction as look as they add up to 180 or however many degrees I used to turn around. I also having the classic blinking thing. Lol, when I was 8, my mom took me to an eye doctor to see if I needed glasses because I was blinking so much! |

You can be obsessive compulsive without having obsessive compulsive disorder. It's only a disorder if it disrupts your life.
