When I wake up, I have to check my phone. When at my school locker, when I close it, I have to turn the dial 3 times and go to open it 3 times. I can't walk away without doing that. My hand-writing HAS to be neat or I'll have to start over all over again. My hair has to be perfect or I'll freak out, same with make-up and clothes and stuff. I have to look good even if I'm not trying to impress anyone. I hate the way pens write, I can't write with them. I have to do everything the right way, as instructed. Once I start something, I must finish it. I can't touch anything that has a rough texture (sand-paper for example). When I think of something happening, I feel like it's going to happen in real life and that thought will be stuck in my head all day and distracts me. Same with images and stuff like that. If something pops in my head like "Tell "whomever" to do this." I actually have to do it. My OCD is kinda hard to explain but I have many symptoms of it. I'm not a clean freak, but a totally organizing freak.
I go to Therapy for Trichotillomania and OCD and Anxiety. They think these things are triggered by the Brain Surgery I had when I was 7. I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. But we still are yet to figure out why I'm like this.

Are you just like me?
i am and i have been for a while so is there any treatment
