Name: Brandon
Symptom: Excessive concerns about dirt, germs, contaminants
Symptom: Feelings of revulsion about bodily waste and secretions
Symptom: Obsessions about one's body
Symptom: Abnormal concerns about sticky substances or residues
Symptom: Need to align objects just so
Symptom: Abnormal concerns about the neatness of one's personal appearance/environment
Symptom: Fear of molesting a child, despite no desire to do so
Symptom: Unfounded fears that one has failed to do some routine task
Symptom: Belief that certain numbers are lucky or unlucky
Symptom: The need to keep doing something until one gets it just right
Symptom: Repeatedly checking to see if a door is locked or an appliance is turned off
Symptom: Asking over and over for reassurance
Symptom: The need to ask, tell or confess
Comments: I have to have a authentic thing. Like the real version of it. Example: I tried to make my Windows look like mac. It drove me insane because it only looked it. Wasn't actually mac. Even iPod accessories. Perfect example. I spent an hour making an iPod Dock for my Video iPod. Never used it. I found myself wanting the real thing.

Self diagnosis of any mental disorder is a very unreliable thing. If you seriously think you have OCD and it significantly interferes with your life (it stops you doing things or delays you significantly etc) then seek professional help

Those are a lot of Very typical traits of O.C.D I think there is a high chance you have it. of course we are not doctor's and we cannot diagnose you so you need to go to the doctor so you can get help if you do have it.
