Do you suffer from OCD?
No, I have no inability to control either my thoughts or activities for more than a short period of time.  You?
I do.  My main problem is being overly clean.  
Oh, do you have routines, rituals that you feel compelled to follow?
Everything has to have a place and needs to stay in that place.  As in, the flower vase can only be in one spot...and that spot only.
Do you find you have to constantly check and see if those items are in their proper spot?
Yes.  I get super embarassed when I do it around people but my mind has to see it there.
Yes, most adults realize that their actions don't make sense however, they can't stop.
