So lately there's been so many numbers going through my head and have to say these numbers out loud or they feel like they'll explode in my chest. It's like I'll be sitting here and then a script of numbers will go through, and I'll have to say them out loud. "86, 49, 32, 14, 16, 14" and so on. It's crazy, it's driving ME crazy. Is that OCD? What is this?

It doesn't seem like BPD or paranoia. It might be an OCD thing?

I know the numbers aren't paranoia. The paranoia part is that somebody is scripting them through my head to calculate something. It could just be a though though, thus would be where the OCD would come in.

Anxiety perhaps, are you worried about something. Perhaps something that is unresolved ?

Sounds like it might be OCD related. The funny thing about OCD is that the intrusive thoughts and compulsions can vary so widely between people and be so random, so it can be easy to focus on the content of the intrusions rather than on the experience of having such intrusions in and of itself.

I formed an entire made up language in middle school because I kept getting made-up symbols in my head, and it combined with the delusion that something was trying to communicate with me in a language that I had to construct/decipher. It's over 10 years later and I still sketch some of the symbols in random places sometimes when I'm stressed out.
