So, I'm really worried about myself. I'm not a hypochondriac, but I think and believe I have OCD (Obsessive Compulsive disorder)
I obsess over even numbers, I have to check everything twice, I like things perfect, but worst of all, I have obsessive thoughts. For some reason I fantasize in torturing people and in order for me to sleep, I have to think about it to relax me. Part of me knows I should stop, but the other parts of me feeds off of that negativity. I feel like I can't tell anyone because no one understands, until I found PsychCentral. -please help me, Latexlizard

Hello Latexlizard: I see this was your first post here on PC. I'm sorry you're only now receiving your first reply. Welcome to Psych Central.

I'm sorry you are struggling with these obsessive thoughts. I'm afraid there is not much of anything in particular I can offer with regard to your concerns. From my perspective, I think this is all something you may need to seek professional mental health services for. In the meantime though here are links to 5 articles, from Psych Central's archives, that offer suggestions for dealing with obsessive thoughts:

7 Ways to Stop Obsessing

5 Ways to Free Yourself From Dark and Obsessive Thoughts

Some Ideas to Help Stop Obsessing

I hope you find PC to be of benefit.
