In what ways do you have OCD? In what ways do you NOT have OCD?

OCD is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. People with OCD are perfectionists, and often have rituals they perform to feel "safe" and reduce anxiety. Last night a friend came over and we jammed on acoustic guitars. We didn't sing. We just played "meditations" based on Irish and Indian musics. He has OCD and he says "let me do my OCD sh*t" when he gets here. He has two bags of "stuff" and has to put them in the right place before we jam. I have what I call "selective OCD." As I have mentioned in previous posts, I will correct typos I see in MyLot posts, and even in old comments I've made. I just corrected one of my MyLot titles. The corners on the speakers I restore must be "perfect," and I am really picky about what goes on Vanny's and my YouTube channel. But my house is a mess, I sometimes leave dishes in the sink, and I could care less whether my truck is washed. In some ways, I'm a slob. OCD is an "Anxiety Disorder" but it's not debilitating. And what I call "selective OCD" can be a good thing. It can yield a high quality product, whether that product be music, a material object, or a clean house. In what ways do you have OCD? In what ways do you NOT have OCD?
