Why do i have these feelings but only towards my family?

When I was a young lass, I had the same feelings.
I'm not sure when it stopped, but I think i was in my late teens.

Certain things my mother would say...like the way she said 'eggs' or 'salad' would really drive me crazy and yeah...my brother's hands...touching me or my stuff?! Nuh uh! And I certainly couldn't sit on a surface that had been warmed by his butt. Eeeeew!

Personally, I grew out of it. I heard somewhere that most young people have a certain degree of obsessive compulsive behaviors that they do grow out of so I'd say you ARE normal.

I haven't thought about this issue in many years! Thanks for bringing it up!

OCD. I sometimes have similar feelings. To get rid of the feeling you need to confront it head on, but not if you're going to have a panic attack of course. Try sitting down witout a rag for a while and see how it goes. Close your eyes, take deep breaths, whatever takes your mind if it. Personally, when I have these feelings I tend to do this little spazzing or shakking for a second to kind of get rid of the feeling. It works for me so what can I say?try to find something that works for you. Also, I used to have this a lot worse when I was younger, along with other OCD habits but I'm mostly fine now and I'd consider myself normal. OCD is very normal, all people have some form of it. If all else fails, consider seeing a doctor or psych. Or just learn to live with it, like putting down a rag.

err okay. that is not normal. dont be distant from ur family btw.. youll regret it. and youre thinking too much. i hope you ARE just thinking too much.
