I deal with checking/rechecking (that I have my keys, phone, wallet, that the door is locked, etc.), perpetual obsessive fear that I will do something that will send me to jail inadvertently, fear that people are judging me, fear that something terrible will happen (someone will die, get hurt, or have their life ruined) because of me. I have to trace a line on my forehead periodically. I pull out my hair and pick scabs, but not too severely. I used to have pretty bad contamination fear, when I first started dealing with this.
