you are not alone! I have OCD mainly contamination fears of HIV and blood. I am becoming agoraphobic. My best recomendation would be to get some counseling. I am and it has helped some although I have only beem doing it a little over a month. If these rituals are getting in the way of your daily fonctions and if it is upsetting and out of your control then you might possibly have OCD. Anytime you need to talk let me know. Anyrhing you say to me I would not think of as wierd because Im in the same boat. Good luck

I am wondering also if i have ocd because I don't like messy things and worry about running out of my meds. I wonder if I am alone or just plain crazzy.
