Does anyone here have OCD? I do and it's been a while sense i've been really obssed with something. I am desperatly fighting one right now and i'm trying really hard. Does anyone have any tips to share on how to fight an obsession?

I don't have full blown OCD but I'm obsessive compulsive about a lot of things! I always have to go back and check to see if I put the lights off in my car, if I turned the stove off, etc.
I can't fight it, I just make sure that when I do it I pay attention and really do it right. If I really focus on what I'm doing, it satisfies the compulsion and I don't have to do it again.

Hey Robin,
my obsession is collecting certain things. it can be very expensive, very time consuming, and take up a lot of space. about 11 years ago it was collecting HOT wheels cars. i had to have everyone that was in a series or on my List that i made. i find myself very vulnerable. why can't i obsess about something good!
