Hi again. I am now wondering how this might relate to OCD? Obsessive compulsivity isn't just about the individual being a clean freak - it can be the opposite too. Again, I suggest that there is something more comforting about being in a space that is imperfect.

Perhaps you are in a position of putting something out of place. Even a book moved out of place or a remote control put askew might help? Have you tried more conventional anxiety coping mechanisms? I still rely on a worry stone or piece of fabric in my pocket. Perhaps scrutinize the room in order to find an imperfection and take solace that not everything is as it should be (a great place to focus is a floor board).
