And if my little sister tripped or messed up my organizing, I would smack her & have to start all over again. : /

Is this normal? Is this even possible? I didn't think OCD was possible as young as that!
I started pulling out my eyelashses around the age of 3 or so. That's a very early manifestation of trichotillomania. So yeah, it's possible.
