yeah, I really would feel compelled to act on those actions regarding the races with myself, and I would take it seriously, as mentioned, I would feel like something could happen if I didn't complete these races in time. The running to the car thing was only one example.

As for the checking and rechecking, i do that a lot until I feel certain that what I saw was correct and I don't have to worry about it (such as rechecking the cords, constantly checking the time for certain events, or checking locations over and over again, even though I know this already).

I also get anxious if I don't succeed in doing what i feel like i have to do to calm myself. Yesterday I got really anxious because i only looked at the "class is canceled" sign once. I was worried that i read it wrong and that i was going to miss something even though I was certain it said class was canceled. Sometimes I look around my room and get really frustrated with how things look, and until I go and straighten things exactly the way it needs to be, I can get annoyed with the look (I did this last night).

In order to deal with some things, I listen to a lot of music, or play my piano, or tap out a rhythm with my feet (mostly done when I'm anxious or bored, or annoyed with something).

I don't know if any of this is related to OCD, or anything i do is really related to it, but I do think these are odd behaviors, but I can't control them, sometimes they're overwhelming until I act on them to calm myself down. I've looked at many other things, but they'll all been canceled out as not likely, so I'm now looking at this to explain my odd behaviors and thoughts.
