We OCD people are very cool people. You can count on us to always be on time, always have hand sanitizer, knows the license plate numbers of everyone on the block, very good at school, organized to no end,...

Any other thoughts?

I think I am the only ocd person here who is a complete and utter slob. But I too think we're cool. Nobody can focus like we can.

As the mom of a young man with OCD I agree about always being on time...he has a thing about time. Not all OCD people are neat freaks...I know that by my sons old room being a toxic waste dump but you are all great people!!

I can NEVER be on time it has to be at least a minute or more late no matter where i go. So ppl i know now say HEY BE THEIR AT 1PM and they really set the time to do something at 1:30pm and they think i don't catch on.yeah right...lol

I Know .As ocd as i am you would think im a neat freak too but i do love discarding all unesacary items but definateky not neat.im very much a minamalist.

If I'm not at least ten minutes early, I'm late. If I'm late, I really have to force myself to go in.
I'm not all that neat, but I do wash the dishes with a great deal of tedium and ritual. Just be sure you scrape your plate or I can't touch it.
Symmetry is VERY important. It's not the same as neat. A pile of laundry can by symmetrically opposed to a pile of papers if they're the same shape.
I always know the rules to every game you will ever play and I will make sure those rules are enforced, otherwise things aren't... just right.
We're interesting people, to be sure. ^_^
