Not everyone has OCD, don't be a fucking idiot.
Just because you may once every now and then display very mild similarities to OCD doesn't mean you have a diagnosable condition.
If you don't believe me, go to a psychologist and explain you him you think you have OCD.
Unless of course you DO have OCD...

OCD is a man made "disorder" everyone shows "OCD tendencies", some more than others, it's over diagnosed like ADHD.

Wow, we seem to have some experts here.
I guess the training I get in mental health was unnecessary, I just should go to you guys next time

Being asked a question doesn't automatically qualify you for expertise on the subject, sorry.

I will agree with you on the point of ADHD being overly diagnosed though.

Autism is a hard one to deal with. I think it affects the brain more than the psyche, though I could be wrong as I don't know a lot about it.
I used to teach guitar to a boy who had autism. I'd just make it all really casual and encourage him a lot but at the first sign of frustration I'd make it all seem really chilled and everything was completely normal.
His mum was amazed he never flew off the handle and started breaking stuff during my lessons.
He was a pretty switched on kid and was progressing pretty well, but I think his parents couldn't afford lessons this last term just gone.

Yeah i'd hate to have autism... they're a bit "volatile" going by the ones i've met. They're nice guys and everything but i try and keep everything relaxed and not argue with them.

And people thought the Transformers 2 poll was predictable...
