*Gnaws 8ack*

*Keeps gnawing*

*The gnawing is in full gear*

Not so much rituals what I have to preform, but there are somethings that make me so I can't focus on anything until it's fixed. Like if I'm sitting in my space and something is moved or falls from position, there's no "Oh, I'll get it later," it's more of a "You're going to go fix that and I'm not going to let you focus until you do." And something with cords from my game system, I can't have them in my friend of view at all otherwise I have to stop everything I'm doing and tuck them away, or move in a way where I can't see them, but I know they're there.

And I have to have all my pens or pencils facings forward and some other things that I don't really think are OCD, just kinda...particular about that. Come to think of it, I just looked over at my table beside my chair and had to rearrange it back into the way it's supposed to be. Maybe I'm just more a perfectionist or have habits of things needing to be in a certain place. I fall into a patter and then stuff gets kinda jumbled if it changes.

...But no, I don't think I have any time wasting rituals I have to do. Not compulsively anyway.

*So much gnawing*

@Fro: Funny that doesn't carry into your posts...

OCD personality disorder?

That first thing there is a compulsion. As well as an obsession. WHOO.

It doesn't sound particularly bad though. You aren't regularly bothered by say coins and knives or something and had to train yourself not to waste hours on fixing your bookshelf.

Well I'm not really bothered by anything as long as it's in its place. Like it has it's own zone where where it's supposed to be, and if it's not there I have to fix it. Like...I chew gum a lot (or at least I did, I've stopped chewing it as much) and afterward I'd wrap it in the paper and set it on my desk to be disposed of later. But they can't just be anyway where on the desk. They have to be cluttered into the same spot with everything else around it. And bits of paper, oh lord do those things annoy me.

On knives, I don't feel the need to hurt anyone with them, but I always have to twirl them. Or inspect them or something. Butter knife to the large cutting one, everyone has to be looked over if I handle it.

...I feel as if I'm making a worse case for myself.

Edit: Yeah, I just had to move my table closer because it wasn't in the right spot and I couldn't just leave it alone.

It has 8een a good day off today.

Well so long as it isn't causing you distress you're fine. If it is check out a therapist.

I have a lot of self harm related obsessions for example and they're rather...stressful. To say the least. It's troubling when you're cleaning dishes and all you can think of is "Dear God we need to stab ourselves why aren't stabbing ourselves?" and it hurts because you're not.

@Ozzy

*Tons of gnawing*

It's 8een a gr8 day for me too.

Hai Ozzy! :3

::::D

That would be rather troubling. I have lots of random thoughts, well, more like what ifs that I run through my head. I'm constantly thinking about what ifs. Or just thinking in general. I never act on the ones that involve harm to other or myself, but they're always popping up. That or I'm over analyzing things...kinda like now.

Okay, thinking about this so much does kind of stress me out a bit. Like I'm constantly thinking and can't ever just turn my mind off. But that my be the ADHD or something...I dunno. I do like having more to talk about here though. It's comforting in a way.

I see. I'm sorry it stressed you out. I think I'm going to have a bagel and fix a pot of coffee...go write...

::::D

Nah, it's alright. I haven't had much to stress about lately. Beats sitting around and feeling like nothing is happening at all. It was a nice conversation. Now I know to watch out if this stuff starts getting distressfully bad.

Enjoy your bagel, coffee, and writing, Aon.

Edit: Homestuck avatars are sorted. Turns out I have more Vriska than Terezi. This displeases me slightly. Now onto Fire Emblem ones.

-goes for the neck- I hadn't done that in a while. Hey guys. Does anyone else have problems going between your native language and english when posting?

Yeah. :o I guess it's because Northern Higher Cuttlefish is just so different than most human languages, but I dunno. :/

Does gibberish count as a language? Other wise no.

Also: Ow.

Edit: Okay, I think this is a compulsive need to organize all my avatars...

I have just changed my sheets.

The ones I have on now have sketchy kitties all over them.

PICTURE.

If my camera 8attery would actually hold a charge I would take a pic.

They are cute sheets.

I am going to buy those for my daughter.
