If you do, then don't count the landing as it's not really a stair! Unless there's more than one flight with different amounts in each... in which case, sorry, that always throws me off >.< And makes me want to cry a bit...http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/39554545510http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/39554545510Thu, 03 Jan 2013 03:50:18 -0500obligatory-festive-namemy ass is happyalso there is no godqueue york state of mindI’ve actually been known to throw out/ eat around food...<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/116d16b94e92099cd42e195809243039/tumblr_mfsf17HkOH1qdabymo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I’ve actually been known to throw out/ eat around food that other people have touched on my plate.</p> <p>Don’t do it.

You let me know there are people out there like me, and that OCD isn't helping me, while not making me feel like I'm messed up.http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/37128910760http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/37128910760Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:20:06 -0500peabodysfedoramy ass is happyalso there is no godqueue york state of mindHey! I'm Cassandra from the Tourette's Toucan page! I see there are people asking about tics of the mind and OCD, and I'd be happy to answer any questions! I really don't want any false information out there and I'm afraid the ask you posted has some. :/ My url is tourettestoucan[.]tumblr[.]com Thanks!http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/36417871614http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/36417871614Sat, 24 Nov 2012 03:50:11 -0500mortuivivispraecipantmy ass is happyalso there is no godqueue york state of mindI just saw the last thing posted about OCD v. Tourettes and would like to add that oftentimes the compulsions manifest as tics. For instance, my dad coughs even when he doesn't have to and I make weird little whimpering noises in sets of even numbers. The outcome of trying to prevent compulsions and tics is also pretty similar in its level of disaster.http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35685951076http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35685951076Tue, 13 Nov 2012 23:10:16 -0500botheringtreesmy ass is happyalso there is no godTouretts vs. OCD: OCD is characterized by obsessions – frequent, unwanted, upsetting and maladaptive thoughts or images that a person can’t get out of his/her consciousness. These are often associated with ritualized overt or covert behaviors (compulsions) that the person feels compelled to perform in response to his/her obsessions.Tics (Tourettes) can occur in flurries and tend to wax and wane in severity and intensity over time. They can be simple – sudden, brief and meaningless.http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35685339883http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35685339883Tue, 13 Nov 2012 23:00:44 -0500livethroughloveandlightmy ass is happyalso there is no godSeeing a lot of people talk about tics and noises that they make and thought I'd point out that OCD and Tourette's often go hand in hand, so if some of your followers are confused about weird noises they make etc. they can check that out :)http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35681045469http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35681045469Tue, 13 Nov 2012 22:00:11 -0500blakebootymy ass is happyalso there is no godI don't hum. But I do make a cooing sound (like a pigeon), but usually only when I am overcome with some emotion (be it stress or happiness.) I also repeat thing that people around me say, or the television, or the radio... often in what some would call a mocking tone (although I really don't mean it that way, I literally can't help doing it, there really isn't any thought that goes into it.) It bothers some people...but most people just think it's kind of funny.http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35614599270http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35614599270Mon, 12 Nov 2012 22:22:29 -0500livethroughloveandlightmy ass is happyalso there is no godOh my god, my father does the character voices. I swear my family got into a minor drama over the fact that he couldn't stop saying MEAT-A-BALL really really loudly. I get words stuck in my head but I don't generally say them out loud. I had the word "glockenspiel" on repeat in my head for like an entire weekend oncehttp://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35422353298http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35422353298Sat, 10 Nov 2012 13:53:41 -0500currymuttonpizzamy ass is happyalso there is no godI quite often say things to myself and then repeat in a different voice, with emphasis on different words, rearrange the sentence and so on, so I can relate to the other askers mother! I have nothing helpful to say on the subject but yes, she's not the only one :)http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35412114027http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35412114027Sat, 10 Nov 2012 11:15:45 -0500theheroyouhatemy ass is happyalso there is no godI'm a handwasher, so the humming "tick" isn't my experience, but the thing about OCD is that you're obsessive about something (for me, it's germs or being "clean") and that manifests in a compulsion (in my case, hand-washing). Something to keep in mind.http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35411269971http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35411269971Sat, 10 Nov 2012 10:57:48 -0500dodgerthirteenmy ass is happyalso there is no godI dunno about the other askers mother, but my biggest tick is I absolutely refuse to touch/eat/handle food I have not prepared myself, and my biggest trigger is a sink full of other people's food. Not so much germaphobia, but what ever the phobia associated with food is.http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35411087582http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35411087582Sat, 10 Nov 2012 10:54:42 -0500221b-baker-street-time-lordmy ass is happyalso there is no godMy mom has OCD and she has this habit of compulsive humming, that isn't an actual song or anything. She does it no matter what mood she is in, no matter how unpleasant. She also says thinks over and over again to herself when she's around the house, sometimes in strange/mocking or character esque voices. I was wondering if anyone else suffers from these symptoms?<p>Interesting. I know, I, personally, mostly just groom to the point of breaking the skin or do things like check my purse for my car keys seven our eight times before I let myself shut the door, things like that. </p> <p>How about anybody else?</p>http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35409420805http://fuckyeahocdotter.tumblr.com/post/35409420805Sat, 10 Nov 2012 10:25:14 -0500explicitideasmy ass is happyalso there is no god[Image Description: Background is several triangles in a circle...<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_md6tt7Cd3P1qdabymo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><span>[Image Description: Background is several triangles in a circle like a pie in alternating shades of green.
