My anxiety is awful, I almost never breathe automatically, I'm always aware of my breathing which drives me insane. But there's something else: EVERY TIME I look at a word or even &gt;think&lt; of a word I automatically count how many letters it has. I hate it, it drives me crazy and I don't want to do it anymore but I just can't control it. Is it a symptom of anxiety? Is is another disorder?

does anyone relate to it?
