Comments on: What kind of disorder do you think this could be? I’m thinking it’s either ocd or a tic disorder.?

Wow, I do a lot of those things as well. I’m always nervous, and I always touch my face, whether it’s my eye or my cheek or something. But definitely I need to touch my nose all the time, but like a certain number of times before I can stop.
And I do the hand thing too, I twiddle my fingers constantly, like whenever I’m talking to someone.

I don’t check things like you do, so maybe that could be OCD or something.
And when I was younger I walked to a nearby elementary school for my school bus to pick me up and take me to mine, before I crossed any streets I had to cross my eyes and then continue because I believed that if I didn’t do that then I’d get abducted. Looking back it was really strange.
But it sounds like it’s all connected to anxiety and maybe OCD.

To me it sounds like it could be OCD. The stuff your doing sounds like its compulsions. The symptoms your describing sound like they are OCD, a doctor will be able to tell you whether or not it is for sure.

…i’m no doctor. we all have compulsions. i’m a counter. i count everything. but i believe when it comes to ocd, one is driven to the compulsion because if the ritual is not performed, something terrible will happen…ie, you mom not picking you up or your mom getting mad at you. make sure you bring th is up with the doc. it sounds like you may also be suffering from anxiety.
