I wasn't so much looking for therapy with this thread and I dont claim to have any "disorder" now but I thought it was definitely an interesting discussion and it did bother me all those years ago. I do think it is more significant than some on here are implying though.
-
I don't include myself and the "habits" I mention above in that statement. I for one was very depressed about these things when I was growing up. Thinking I was the only person like it until one day I saw a girl at school run back up the stairs to touch a part of the wall then go back down. The relief was quite something... Having to go through the rituals/compulsions can be very very stressful and frustrating and I probably speak for most on here in saying it's certainly not a "fashionable thing to boast about" I think you can just get away with discussing such things these days as the Internet allow you to reveal anything about you anonymously and conditions are generally more accepted these days, therefore you hear more about them.

Apparently not or don't know was the response last time I asked about this. Certainly the games are behind closed doors these days.

Wasn't expecting so many examples.. Especially loads that I'd forgotten I had/do!! The toilet roll one I have got used to (BTF - I can imagine yours changing over everytime someone uses it which is amusing but I can imagine it drives you mad) Deppo, I have the same problem but at last I can associate it with OCD now and not just being a dirty git ;-) do you go and do the walk of shame back to the bathroom after?? Sounds like the car one is extremely common, my brothers next door neighbour is the same and they watch him do it every day from the upstairs window... I have to lock my car twice with the remote so I guess I'm guilty of that to a mild extent. The touching of things with the other hand... Now there's one I'd forgotten about.... I remember when I was younger walking home from the pub on my own I had to touch a lamppost and then go back and hit it with my other hand till I was satisfied I'd done it right... I really hope neigjbours weren't looking out of their windows then!! I once read that people with OCD should never drink alcohol as it makes it worse... I think they meant on a mental level as they say OCD has control on a psychological way too. I've often wondered wether certain parts of my personality/actions are due to having that underlying disorder tucked away somewhere...

Had an interesting conversation with my flatmate last night in the pub about OCD and turns out we have both been a victim of it to some degree in our lives. Got me thinking that maybe OCD is actually more common than you'd think. A forum is a good place to find out, what with people being able to admit to having/being whatever whilst remaining anonymous so I'd be interested in hearing what forms of OCD posters have had/do suffer with. I was lucky enough to grow out of (or learn to live with and ignore) the traits I had but some people suffer throughout their lives. I had a prayer ritual (non religious) when I was little when going to bed that meant I had to say a certain load of sentences in my head or something bad would happen. I also had to touch certain random objects repeatedly till it felt right. Someone I used to work with had to set everything on his desk to exact right angles before he was able to leave the office. I also once saw a Jeremy Kyle type show where a woman had extreme OCD and was constantly tapping parts of her body checking that her items were still in her pockets even though she was sat in one place... It was quite shocking to see. All very messed up and I feel for those that are controlled by this cruel disorder into their adult lives...

Even a desperate plea for football friends got me nowhere so what the heck :-D

There's a line......

Ok fair enough well it all sucks :-D

Sounds like you've had a lot of "me time" lately oh god I'm turning into Turkish............ !

But surely the police don't take that sort of thing to court cos they know it will be thrown out? That's if it even gets that far after cps don't deem it worth going to court for (again cos they know they won't get punished for it) I just think on a law level punishments are inconsistent for different crimes.

Absolutely. I feel a bit lost, the snow is putting me off from even heading to supermarket to get shopping in... -
Heard the 206 was a really bad drive. Poor design also meant that a girls one at work had a flooded filter box when she went through a deep puddle lol... But anyway, back to the OPs request.... I will keep my ear to the ground...

Can you get a half decent Peugeot?

All contributes to giving crims the impression they can do what they like in this country and get away with it though. When at that age they need it drumming into them that they can't. Level of strictness needs an overhaul imo.

Didnt see those "hundreds of others" protesting your ban though did we ;-) Screw them I say and have that helicopter or magic cape on standby won't ya ;-) There's a good Deppo.
-
I revoke my protest against your banning.

I know we'll get to play these games later but sliding right down the table isn't going do anything for players confidence.... -

Surely the pitch was frozen under all this snow?!?? Does this come down to under pitch heating?! Do wallsall have this or do they just not bother like us.... Have wallsall got any injury problems that would cause them to call off this game?! -
