I don't have to repeat things, but what used to be a big problem for me was ordering. If things were not just 'so' Iwould have to keep moving them until I felt 'good about it'.

Irritating is an understatement I feel like I'm gonna implode if I dont do something the right way and it has to be on the right number or I have to start over, I self medicate with alcohol to numb my brain but am trying to stop I take Zoloft but it only takes the edge off it doesnt stop the thoughts or rituals from repeating!

i have a routine. i have my week set out before it starts. when something changes, i get VERY anxious, even if it's a welcome change. i also have to have things symmetrical, in a certain order, etc. so time consuming

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
