I have tons of OCD things. I've become tired of stressing about it and embraced it.
Usually if I do something like scratch the right side of my head, I have to do the left. Then I have to start with the left first and then the right. Then do that whole process inversed. And I keep doing that until either I lose track, or it runs the risk of interfering socially. Though that's almost completely gone. It used to drive me up the wall because I couldn't stop.
I can't set things like the TV volume or alarm clock at anything other than multiples of five, the opposite of the other person that said that.
Someone mentioned walking on the lines of a crosswalk. I always do that, but never thought of it as OCD until I read that. I walk on cracks too, or in between them. Whichever suits me at the time, I guess. Never thought about it.
When I read I always have to stop at the beginning of the first new paragraph of the page on the left, unless it's would severely ruin the flow of the passage. Then I have to keep reading. I've lightened up on that, too, though.
I always have to wash my hands periodicly when handling a book. The feel of certain kinds of paper with any amount of sweat on my hands sends chills down my spine.
Sometimes I can't stop playing Tetris in my head. Dunno if it's OCD, but that's fucking obnoxious. My mind always tries to get it to come out in a completely flat surface. It never does.
The absolute worst one, though, is sometimes, if it crosses my mind, when I look at a digital clock I get a really strong urge to keep looking at it until it changes. So I feel stuck sitting there staring at the damn clock trying not to blink. I fucking hate that.
There's probably a few more, but I can't think of them.
