I have the same, but have never been diagnosed with ocd although it is just one symptom of the condition.

when one symptom matches then probably we both have ocd? ):

@mealid Not necessarily, but I would get the opinion of a doctor if you think you might have it.

OCD? you can tell that by yourself, is it just for "safety" or also when you see something in the shop you have the urge to buy ... I think if you feel that this is threatening you have to see a doctor for this so you will be given some advice. hope it is not OCD, though
