Obsessions are persistent idea, thoughts, impulses or images that are experienced as intrusive and inappropriate and that cause marked anxiety or distress.
Complusions are repetitive behaviors or thoughts (mental acts) whose point is to prevent or reduce anxiety or distress.
When the person tries to ignore and avoid these obsessive thoughts in a repetitive behavior then compulsions are born. These are performed merely to ward off the anxiety.
If this behavior interefere with your normal life functioning, taking more than one hour every day of same behavior than it can be marked as OCPD but cannot assure that disorder. Hypochondriasis, guilt, over-responsibility, sleep disturbance, anxiety, stress are the features of OCPD.
Now reading your posts, I cannot say that you have OCPD specially when you yourself claimed to be very "unorganized". The onset of this disorder in women is about 20-25 yrs of age. Your pink color makes me sense you way younger than age.
SO, don't worry honey you are a young healthy lady who loves to be active and observe things a lot to keep herself update. It is very much normal behavior.
Now, if you are still too much stressing about it then go take some SSRI's antidepressant drugs but don't go overdose.
Phatti how social are you ?
Do you like to spend time with people, friends, go out and stuff
or are you more likely to stay home, be on your own, read a book, paint, TV
I like being with my pals. I love going out to restaurants, shopping etc. I'm also a pretty outdoorsy person. I like parks and taking pictures of things in nature. :)
