I Can't Be The Only One That Does This, Right?
#Reddit #AskReddit Развлечения
The OCD is strong in this one…
I hear a lot of people with ocd, adhd, and autism
I ALSO start with smallest slices of pizza, then work my way up lol.
When walking on pavements, I often intentionally avoid stepping on cracks.
And used to take shirt off when dropping the deuce, but don't anymore.
I can't walk while drinking from a bottle/flask. I have to stop walking or I'll lose my balance and might fall over. Also my brain sometimes seems to "rewire" itself when I have a migraine (including silent migraines) and I need to discover what changed each time. Some things that changed last time: Increased liking strawberries, liking flapjacks, skill in sewing, habit of chewing plastic, patience for waiting. Decreased liking blueberries, liking buttermilk pancakes, motivation for resin art, skill in Monster Hunter games. I forgot how to read a map once, but it came back eventually.
The mimicking accents is something I do, but I also mimic vocal intonations and physical quirks. I learned its a psychological means to get someone to trust/like you because you are mirroring them. It did come in handy at my job where I had to establish trust very quickly.
The one with the taking deep breaths til the right one fills up your lungs just right is me 1,000%. It's been infuriating and maddening my whole life
I visualize movies for music I listen to and to the amount I sometimes don't see the things in front of me despite having my eyes wide open. It makes me do weird faces and movements sometimes and I go wild when I know I'm alone but try to tone it down when in town.
The shoe scuffing one made me feel seen. It reminds me of another compulsion I have. For some reason, when I was a kid, and severely bullied, I would imagine a pattern to myself and sort of repeat it while putting pressure in my mouth or moving my tongue. It's up, down, left right and then I rotate it in accordance with the pattern and then I rotate it clockwise and counter clockwise so it would go:
1. Up, down, left, right - Down, up, right, left - Left, right, down, up - Right, left, up, down
2. Up, down, left, right - Right, left, up, down - Down, up, right, left - Left, right, down up
3. Up, down, left, right - Left, right, down, up - Down, up, right, left - Right, left, up down
Rinse and repeat until I catch myself doing it. I think it's a stress response, but I'm not entirely sure. I've never talked to anyone about it before now.
Iirc, I've been doing this since I was 7, so 16 years at this point.
Can anyone else relate?
I also, in the midst of this, invented my own secret codewhere every letter would be replaced with its, in my mind, opposite verbal equivalent.
So, the Swedish alphabet would turn from ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZÅÄÖ
to: EDSP(I/A)TKJYHGRNMUDKLCFOWVZIXÖEÅ
So if I wanted to write "Hi, my name is Kevin", it would be "Jy, ni mean yc Gawym
If I'm in my house then I fully take off my pants to crap 😂 It's just nice to go without having to worry about keeping your pants on your calfs
Anytime I’m eating something that has an assortment of foods ex. salad, stir fry, even burgers, I always make sure I have enough of everything for the last bite, even if it means eating more of something to eventually even it out
It's amazing how many of these seem to be just symptoms of anxiety.

I take a tiny bite of the pointed end of the pizza and then a tiny bit of crust. I don’t like being wasteful. Plus it’s an excuse to eat more bread, which is something I don’t usually allow myself to eat.
A lot of this sounds like ocd
A lot of these sound like OCD
I only crack the first two knuckles on each hand.
Ergh this one is pretty boring tbh.
This one was pretty stupid.
