I think I have this.

I found this forum because I was looking for a way to cure my insomnia. After looking through this whole board, I saw how good it is, and I would now like to talk about a different problem of mine here. I feel like a right problem person! :oops:

anyways, I seem to have a problem in terms of ocd, which my family and girlfriend think I should seek help for.

I have to touch the corners of rooms all the time, and I have to do it 4 times every time. I have specific points, and corners I have to touch, and I always have to do a certain routine of 'corner touching' before I go to bed.

I just feel as though if I dont do this, something bad will happen to me, like get cancer, or die or something. Now this may sound silly, but I genuinly believe this. I think if I touch these corners, and do these routine's, then ill be better off for it in life.

I have to do this all the time at work too!


Secondly, I have to spit into my hands. Now this may sound absolutely disgusting to you, but I cant help it. I feel like I sometimes get a disease in my mouth, so I spit it out. I often do it when I come across diseased or disabled people. I dont do this often, only when I come across people of these types.

Can anyone give me advice on how to address this? I feel its a bit pathetic to go to the doctors about, and I feel really stupid, but its something I cant help, and is something I have realised that I need to address.
