Counting

[maddogmj77]

Whenever I'm walking like on the sidewalk or whatever, I just randomly start counting the number of steps it takes for each block on the sidewalk. I don't want to do it, and it really annoys me that I do. I was wondering if anybody else did this too.

This is probably not the right place on the forums for this, so feel free to move it if necessary.

I do something similar. I make my steps into drumbeats and imagine or hum a song along to the beat. Its all normal I'd say.

I think most people with constant thoughts or tics do something similar.
I know what you mean

I used to do that, but not so much anymore. I'd say it's normal, though.

Far as I know that is textbook basic OCD (http://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/obsessive-compulsive-disorder-ocd/index.shtml). Nothing to worry about though.

I do that all the freaking time, it drives me insane.
