I have OCD. Been diagnosed since the tender age of 18. I mean my parents always knew something was up by the way I reacted to things. I never just dove right in like a normal toddler, or young child would...I would sit back and consider every option endlessly and end up missing out of on the fun the other kids would have.

My type of OCD is the rigid rules set type. I have a rigid set of rules that I have set for myself that if I do not adhere too, or cannot control the situation I am in...I tend to compulsively do things. This has led me to not leave my house very much (cannot expect everyone else outside to adhere to my rules:sus:) and also because sometimes I think my compulsions make me look strange in others eyes.

I would like to hear some more about people with this diagnosis, and later I may share some of my rules.

also here is some basic reading...it doesn't discuss the spectrum of OCD, but will give the layman a guide to some of the traits.
