Anong ka-OC-han ang meron ka?

[jundogg]

O.C. = Obsessive Compulsive

my definition: some extra-ordinary things you do, which may look weird or unusual to other people.
(i-search nyo nalang if you really wanna know its meaning)

to start off, here's mine:

- i dont use soap with hair/s on it. tinatanggal ko muna. lalo na sa food - kadiri!
- i dont have a regular hair cut, ever since hindi nila nagegets gusto kong cut tapos madalas pag uwi ko, nag gugupit pa uli ako ng hindi pantay na buhok.
- pag nagsuot ako ng shoes, i make sure pantay ang sintas at sikip on each foot.
- i dont carry a backpack on one shoulder only ever since. im really utilizing the purpose of both straps.
- i make sure to cut out the excess threads in my clothes. to avoid mahila at matastas ang tahi.

marami pang iba. can't recall all of them now. yes, they may appear as "kaartehan sa sarili" but i feel more comfortable with it since naging habitual na sakin ang mga yun.

how about you?

• I put all of my stuff in the same place every time --my car keys on the same hook inside my cabinet, my wallet in the same nook beside the safe
• I make sure I am parked perfectly parallel to the painted white lines
• I add up numbers that I see along the street --for example, if a car's plate number is XYZ-157, I add 1 plus 5 plus 7 to get 13, then I add 1 plus 3 to get a final answer of 4
• After I roll up my power windows, I flick the switch one more time just to make sure the window closed all the way

This is just some of the more peculiar OC behavior I exhibit. Nag-mellow na nga ako over the years, kasi ang spouse ko exact opposite, kahit saan nakakalat ang gamit. I guess you could say we complement each other

I have exactly the same compulsions! But in addition to adding up the numbers in car plates, I also think of the numerical equivalent of the letters eg WMV (W= 23, M=13, V=22) hehe. I also flick the switch twice on power windows and the door lock. hehe.

• I do not look at the toilet when I flush.
• I arrange the money in my wallet with the face part showing and from highest to lowest denomination. eg 1000 then 500 then 100s.
• I segment and color code my clothes eg all floral skirts together, all plain skirts together then I arrange it again according to color
• I neatly file all my bills
• I arrange my all my DVDs and CDs alphabetically and I make sure that the alignment is perfect
• I have a way of knowing if things are misaligned in our house eg corner of chair should align with the corner of the table
• I count the strokes when I brush my teeth and my hair

I have other OC habits esp at work where I color code almost everything but so far those are my most predominant habits.

sa akin pagdating sa keyholder:
from left to right:
1st holder = bedroom key
2nd holder = bedroom cabinet keys from left to right
3rd holder = office key
4th & so on holder = office cabinet from left to right

Hahaha parepareho pala tayo. Ako my plates, and my cell number will give you my favorite numbers. Combination talaga. I always bring alcohol, sa auto, sa pocket. Wallet is always on my right back pocket. Cash/coins never ako maglalagay sa front pockets, kasi madumi.

• back in elementary, I used to kneel 7 times in front of a chapel I pass pauwi.
• then, it turned into making the sign of the cross 3 times while praying fervently.
• for a year, coke lang ang merienda ko.
• meron ako lucky pajamas dati.
• same with ballpens

will try to post more...
right now, I think I got most of my OC-behavior out of my system..

[basti08]

i walk on diagonal or cross lines sa tiles ng house namen. even back in elem, sa other house namen. i really have to walk on that pattern or else nakakairita ang pakiramdam.

Eto naman po ang mga ka OC-han ko:

• When eating breakfast, I always want to sit at the "Kabisera" kase kung hindi, hindi ako mapakali
• When eating, I usually make sure that I close the scissors (meaning putting the spoon and fork together) after I eat. Kapag hindi ginawa ng kasama ko kumain, sinasabihan ko na gayahin ang ginawa ko.
• When I dress up, I usually want all my stuff to be matching, from the clothes that I wear to the jewelries, to the bag and shoes that I wear.
• I am very particular about the cleanliness of bathrooms and toilets. Usually I go to pay CR's or better yet sa isang hotel ako pupunta to use the CR.
• Kapag namimili ako, I make sure that I get a new stock and I look for even the smallest details. Kapag meron hindi nakasatisfy sa standards ko, its either I don't buy it or look for an alternative kahit mas mahal pa.
• I don't like sharing my drinks with anyone. Kapag merong naki-inom sa baso ko, I usually give it to them na lang.
• When I fix my room even before going to bed pag hindi ko nakitang nasa tamang angle yung isang bagay, kahit naka higa na ako tatayo ako para ayusin yun...
• When I sit down sa mga fastfood or restaurants, I look at the seat first to make sure that its clean then pinapagpagan ko bago ako umupo.

Hehehehehe minsan over na talaga!

Its nice to know that I'm not so abnoy pala,marami din palang mga tao na
meron obsessive-compulsive behavior.

My O-C is mostly about double, no even triple, quadruple checking
everything.

Especially before going to bed. I have to check all the locks on the
doors of the house and make sure they are closed. Mga tatlong
beses ko binabalikan lahat - sa last round I have to say out loud
pa "Door locked, door locked!" to really make sure.

Pag narinig na nga ito ng wife ko, tawa siya ng tawa, may tililing
daw ako!

For our psychology major tsikoteers, how do you explain this kind
of behaviour? I know its kinda abnormal but I just can't help it!

Naku pareho pala tayo Bro. Ganyan din ako. Yung ini-lock kong door locks ng bahay, minsan kahit malayo na ako, binabalikan ko pa ito, just to be sure na naka-lock nga yung pinto. Mas nasa-satisfy ako kung nagsasalita din ako, at kinakausap ko sarili ko, "Okay......locked!" (Para ding sa iyo.....). Pati yung pag-lock sa tsikot ko, ganun din, pabalik-balik din ako.

Yung mga appliances ko (like AC, TV, radio) na na-switch off ko na earlier, bago ako umalis ng bahay, iikutan ko ulit yun for a final check. Hindi pa iyon, susulyap pa ako ulit sa mga gamit to be sure that all of them are switched off, bago ko i-lock yung pinto.

Minsan tinatanong ko na sarili ko......."Ano ba nangyayari sa akin?" Pero di ko rin ma-explain.

Isa pa, pag matutulog na kami ni Misis, kelangan nasa left side ko siya palagi, kundi, di ako makatulog nang maayos. Pag napapunta ako sa kaliwa nya (right side ko siya), sabihin ko agad " Ooopppss! Hoy... Palit tayo pwesto!" Bwe-he-he!
