@@probablyafrog3357 the basic threshold for pathology is suffering. Same behaviour but not debilitating for me. So yeah until I suffer technically it's not a pathological state. And it's hard to assess pathologies especially with comorbidities and overlaps. It might have been asd masking. In the last few months it was more intense and crossed over into more actions or contexts, it was more unpredictable and harder to "justify", or kept under control (sorry idk if it's clear. Eg obsession with cleanliness was usually just in the kitchen when I cooked. Then cleaning pots got more important, they had to be spotless. Then I started mopping the whole house twice a week. It might be a dumb example but like it escalates into being obsessed about parts of eg cleanliness that I never cared about, so that now it's exaggerated and takes all my time away and it's exhausting for no reason). So it did get worse recently, but I always have had compulsions and obsessions, and it does trainwreck my daily life. I am trapped in cycles of executing a schema of tasks I don't really want to do, like it drives me nuts to repeat it but it's the only way to cope with the situation, or I'm aware that it's a waste of time but I freeze in my tracks and keep doing it automatically, out of fear, and I do it to manage the fear even if it has no meaning or use for me practically. That's parts of ocd, parts of adhd, parts of addiction, and who knows what. In my case I need to figure out what's the root one i guess. So either I got worse, or I underestimated how bad it was at the time of the og comment. I wasn't trying to make fun of it or say it's not serious for people, my bad. But I probably still am ocd, I need some tests done

​@@BarackObamaJediGiven that your frame here is exclusively self-diagnosis, you should probably just not talk about conditions in the context of "these are things I notice about myself." Pathology can't be adequately assessed or diagnosed by the patient, you will always necessarily modify your behavior within your framework of understanding. You can say you have obsessions or compulsions, but it's insufficient to have only obsessions or compulsions, many disorders carry these symptoms under a variety of different triggers. If these are things you actually feel are problems in your life, seek professional help for a diagnosis and treatment plan.

I too watch TV like there will be a quiz. After almost any entertainment if I’m walking out after and I can’t recall specific moments and jokes and basically be able to write a review my brain is like “So you wasted that time then and we aren’t getting it back.”

The upturned bowl on an upturned plate is insane... But im actually even more paranoid with my dishwasher habits. I pre-rinse all my dishes before they go in the dishwasher so they go in looking clean already.

Oh, well, that's not good. Modern dishwasher detergents are formulated to work better when dishes aren't precleaned. Don't ask me how, that's just what they say. It was a hard habit to break, we've had a dishwasher since 1984 and back then they always said to rinse first.

Lol my parents are the exact opposite my dad talks during shows all the time.

This is my life😂

that dishwasher part spoke to me so much. i think i am not OCD but every time i watch Jon he just reconfirms i actually am and then i try to forget about it. I have never understood how people stuff things in a dishwasher.

Upvoted because it's John.

4:10 I once saw Jeff Dunham live. He got the hiccups. That was the best.

I tried that thing with putting water on the baking tray to clean it, but it just lifted off all the non-stick coating. Obviously a cheap pan but still don’t want to fry that again!

I never tire of watching that routine. I wonder what that says about me. 😁

Always liked John. Meet the richardsons is great too Still think his story of stalking a clown is great from wilty.

Don't matter now you've separated 🤣🤣

This is what happens if you over analyse. Jon needs to write a column for the Daily Express. They have regular articles about plumbers and others telling their readers such important things as you’re not using your thermostat correctly, you’re not using the hoover right etc etc

Not anymore…

I went to opposite way, I just figured out how to increase the storage and let her record everything she wanted, then explained with a graph and chart how much money we will pay in the future to keep expanding it. The side effect is now I can't find anything to watch because there is too much in the list. So I just got a streaming service and added my favorite shows to the profile, problem solved!

His TV anecdote could not be more true for me. I literally have to tell her "I can't listen to both of you at the same time" EVERY time. She still waits til it's on before she thinks of something to tell me. Every time. Can't wait for an ad, either. That's when SHE pays attention to it.

My wife does the same exact thing, so now I watch all shows with captions on, and somehow I have learned how to read and listen and I've become quit good at retaining a good bit of both. But it's still so fkn annoying 😅

As someone who always wash whatever i use while cooking right away or instantly after im done using it. I agree. You have pockets of free time while waiting on food to get ready to eat. Why not spend it cleaning ? Saves you time afterwards. I also always wash things up right away after im done. It is SO nice that everything always are ready for use. I dont understand why people wait and gather things. Unless they have a washing machine clearly. Which is just waste of money compared to free for doing it instantly. It litterly only takes a few secounds cleaning something instantly. Plus it also cleans easier since it havent hardened (set iteself) yet. Plus the machine not always do it entirely clean.

I just say 'Okay' then walk off, drives them nuts!!!!

Proof opposites attract 😁

Not going to lie, I will plan what and how I cook based upon how I know things will fit properly in the dishwasher.

My husband keeps asking me why people do what they do when we're watching films and sometimes I wonder if we're even watching the same film. It's very distracting. i can't possibly focus on two things at the same time. And the dishwasher, I'm not good at organized cleaning, or house chores in general, but the dishwasher is my domain. My husband seems to think that you fill a dishwasher in the same way as you put laundry in a washing machine.

I love Jon, he's not changed since being married in terms of being a neat freak. He was just as obsessed with cleanliness and tidiness before he met Lucy. He is so write though, I have to tidy up as I go along when cooking. Can't stand it when the sides are piling up with things whilst cooking or baking.
