Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Anyone have this?

I think I may have it, in a mild form, especially near exam times. I know it's natural to worry but the lengths I go to are unhealthy. The last exam I went to, I checked that my pencil case was in my bag at least 15 times on the way to college, even though it was impossible that it had left the bag. After doing an exam I am constantly reliving the exam in my head wondering what I could have done wrong. I checked that I had the right paper attached my exam when I was finished, about 5 times. It's also elsewhere, for example, at night I have to check several times that the doors are locked, that the gas and fire are off, etc. It also seems that I have a lack of trust in people and machinery. I am always worried about examiners making mistakes counting my marks up and stuff, or computers adding it up wrong. I worry about teachers not having entered me for an exam, etc...

What a strange person I must sound

Anyone else have similar problems?
