I hang the towels right in the bathroom after a shower. I fold the cloths up before I throw them into the Laundry basket. I put clean socks in the drawer in a certain way,and everything else. I hang cloths up in a certain way. Dust bothers me. Germs bother me. If someone mentions a subject that triggers a obsession in me,I loose my trend of thought,and my listening capability.

At one time I could watch TV,and not know what's going on. My mind would wander from one thing to another. I trace my OCD to a few things that they say that I did, when I was about 7 years old.

Doctors have told me various things,and I've heard that there are cognitive therapy treatments,and medical treatments. My illness is intertwined with panic disorder,and depression. I also have sudden mood swings if I feel like I've been put down in some way. It's hard for me to tolerate that,and I become agitated if I feel abuse. I've been through much abuse. I sympathize with what your going through. BF
