For instance, if I make an entry into my checkbook register I may go back as many as four or five times to make sure that I didn't make any mistakes. Usually there are no mistakes. This is what drives me crazy. Another bad habit that I have is if someone put something away from me, I'll have to go back and doublecheck that they put it in the right place, in the right position. If I'm talking to someone on the phone after I hang up, sometimes I'll sit there and worry if I said the wrong thing. Or if I placed an order on the phone or on the Internet I may have to go back several times to make sure that that I didn't make any mistakes. If I don't understand something I'll have to dig and dig until I find an answer, where other people would not worry about this, especially if it's not that important. I would like to hear from some other people that going through the same problems, and what they do to deal with it.

This is SO me! I haven't been diagnosed with OCD but I really think I have this, especially after reading some of these posts. Unfortunately, my ways of dealing with it aren't at all healthy. I mentally attack myself for thinking this way and doing these things and of course that only makes it worse.
