How, if possible, can i stop being obsessed with numbers?

I forgot one: Time. I will be on the computer, look at the time like for example 7:15. Then in my mind i say 7:15, look at my Dad’s alarm clock and it says 7:21 so in my mind i say 7:21 according to my Dad’s alarm clock, the look BACK at the computer and it still says 7:15 so in my mind i would say 7:15 according to my computer or the computer what ever suits me at that moment. And if it’s like 7:15(or whatever time, this is an example of course) and it changes to 7:16 and i see that happen, i have to announce out loud 7:16 just now according to this clock right here in whatever room.

u could hav a form of OCD i went through a fase wen i was obsesed with doing everything by 1,2,3. everythn!

Umm well I think you have OCD and I’m pretty sure I do to but for me it’s nothing bad at all.when it comes to video games I’m a perfectionist like I need to unlock everything do very challenge etc no matter how much I don’t like the game I have to finish it…so I know my case(if it is OCD not just me being a nerd) is childish/nerdish but it’s still annoying. Anyway I’ve just sort of accepted it as a part of who I am. Again my thing isn’t serious and I’m sure it’s not the same process but it is similar so just accept the whole numbers thing(can’t really help out with the touching thing sorry)

Ahhh. That exact same thing happend to me and with the number 3 too. I count everytime I brush my teeth or my hair or when I put on deodorant. And if I touc something with one hand I have to do the exact thing with the other. Both sides os my body have to be even or I feel weird. Also when I walk my feet can’t touc cracks on the groud or I feel uneven. there is so many more things I could say. But anyways I’m pretty sure what you have is a case of OCD. I’ve told my mom to help me or take me to a psychologist or something but she dosent take me seriouse and thinks its nothing..

Yes it could be some kind of OCD. Specially because you started and it got worse with time. The best to cure that is to try to stop your actions slowly, try to catch yourself when you are doing it, and try to stop so it does not continue. This might help also. http://funadvice.com/r/14ptke83jaj Hope I helped(:

I dont know but if you figure it out let me kno my hubby takes every number in his head and can do anything with it, and if you tell him a number to remember he will NEVER forget it.
