is it normal that I always have to make something even? like lets say my friend and I are play fighting and he/she punches me and I punch them back and then they punch me back it bothers me because I need to punch them back so we each got to punch eachother 2 times. I can't have a ponytail that isn't perfect, it cant have any bumps and I always restart it when its not in the middle. It bothers me when people touch stuff with their hands and I hate germs and stuff do I like have ocd or am I just crazy ?! :P

    I have severe OCD and over the years I have realized that pretty much everybody has OCD symptoms. Doesn't meant they have OCD though. In my case, I have had OCD my whole life but my doctors think I had a traumatic experience as a child and thats what made it so severe. So I guess what Im trying to say is ya its normal to have quirks like that. Just makes you human.

    I have OCD and this kinda sounds like it... I would try to ignore it unless it leads to panic attacks like it does for me then go to a doctor or a therapist

    My friends and I have similar problems. Strangely enough the other half of my friends can't stand even numbers. They had to have an odd number of everything.

    haha, you seem to have a lot of OCD tendancies, but I don't think it's the actual cause. People with OCD often get depressed if thigns arn't perfect, they feel a sense of impending doom almost. (at least thats what I studied) Like some other comments, I think it might be just a quirk, or perhaps it's just a pet peeve.

    The sister of a friend of mine has OCD. One of the things she has learnt while talking to all her sisters different doctors is that a LOT of people have OCD tendencies to some degree. One of them (which I relate to) is counting. Counting stairs and amount of steps taken are my usual. Another she mentioned to me was people having to have things in an even or uneven number. As long as it doesn't affect your life, then it's totally normal

    I don't think you have OCD, I think it's just a quirk. My cousin is the same way.
