- i would have to turn taps off and have the handle face a certain direction. if i screwed up, i'd have to leave the tap and redo it again 5 times or until it feels right.
- doing assignments or tests, if i write something and it doesn't feel right, i'd have to erase it and write it again 5 times.
- i fear contamination and germs. too many examples to list here.
everything in my life seemed to be run by numbers and i was seriously going crazy cause it was controlling me. eventually i just had to control it myself. i still have a bit of it but it's not as bad as it was 15 years ago.

Nope. Still not OCD. We will use you for a case study when we get into the levels/types of autism though.
