Don't be shy, I would have liked to have had a chance to read your plight, at least. We won't be judgmental.

I hate the number 7, I don't like numbers like #34 or seeing 2:14, 81, 29, 61, etc etc because those numbers add up to equal 7 or have a difference of 7. I hate that number and I don't know why and I've been this way for almost 20 years and I'm sick of this obsession in my stupid mind, I want it to stop.

That sounds annoying. I think counseling is a good idea. I wonder if your hate for the number is connected to a repressed memory.

Sometimes I watch an add on Tv, and I think if I watch it til the end I will die. I also imagine that the hot water service will blow up. My Ocd moments not strong but there.

Hello Hot_Tamale, does it have anything to do with casino slot machines?

Hi again Jungle, no it doesn't actually but I see why you asked that. I've never been to a casino in my whole life. I just know this problem started when I was around 10-11 years old. My school teachers in my past didn't make mathematics easy for me, I hated studying math at that age and watched a whole bunch of sports on TV (there are numbers literally everywhere in sports). Maybe those 2 factors caused it, I don't even know.

So, Seven is the ultimate horror movie for you indeed.

I'm weird about odd numbers, I can't do anything an odd number of times without it bothering me. Scratching my arm, using my signal light, the number of coins in my pocket... everything has to be even. I won't lose my mind or anything if I can't always balance things out in that way, but it WILL irk the crap out of me.

I really sympathize with people who have true OCD issues in that way. I can't imagine what it's like when those feelings are turned all the way up.

The part about it irking the crap out of you. You know what the feeling is like ha.
