Thank you Googley. This thread reminds me of one in the General forum, about the difference between true OCD and OCD "tendencies". I consider what I've got nothing more than tendencies, since this is pretty much the only way it really manifests itself. I do have things like the need to have things arranged a certain way (shoes, for example, need to face the same way with toes pointing inward), but this isn't severe enough to concern me...it's just a "tendency". Hmm..
