Is This Normal?
Posted: 09-16-05 22:56pm

Okay um so I tried to tell my friends this but they didn't understand and thought it was just stress but its been happening all my life so I don't think its stess. I'd be doing something and out of the blue my brain would trigger to me an urge to do touch something. But i'd have to touch the right spot or else I would feel extremely antsy and uncomfortable not to mention itchy. But I know it's not an urge beacuse I can control those like if I had an urge for chocolate I could control it w/o feeling antsy and stuff. If you don't understand then i'll give you an example. At school I was writing on a piece of paper and then I would get this urge to write really hard to find the right spot or make the shape/line/zig zag that pleased me. And when i'm talking I would have to incorporate some letters or else I would feel very upset. So right now i'm really into the k's and g's and hard c's. And I can't not type them beacuse I would get very angry at myself and irritated.. So can anyone help me or like relate?

Sometimes I have urges like this, I just need to do something like walk in a certain patern or adjust something, odd little things like that but I do not think it happens often. I am not sure what this weird thing is or if there is anyway to get rid of it :s

Hey Guys
Posted: 09-26-05 21:12pm

Hey guys im no doctor but I do know a little and I think that what u guys are suffering from is ocd...Obsessive,cumpulsive, disorder. There are plenty of drugs that help with this although if it is minor im sure u can will your self not to do these acts and treat these complusions that u must do as "urges" as u mentioned with the chocolate. Your brain is a powerful thing and its almost like kicking a habit where u just feel horrible unless u have the drug. This is physical addiction,yes, but also alot of addictions are very physcological. Watch and see if there are other things that u feel u need to do...I hope I helped a little..
Dan
