And hubby brought this to my attention tonight as I was crunching figures like I always do every fortnight. I have a thing where if I see an odd number sitting in the balance of my bank account I have to round it off whether it be in relation to the minus or the positive figures. Has never crossed my mind to see it as an obsession until tonight how blind am I xx Am I the only one who does this?

For example, music on my iPad, when I add new music to it, I need to add a certain amount of songs so the song total is always an odd number. I.E If I have 683 songs on there, and I add 5 songs to make it 688 songs.. I need to add one more song so it finishes on a odd number 689. I am not diagnosed with OCD or anything, I find it more to do with my anxiety but I do something very similar to you so please don't feel you are the only one.</P> <P>My best for you,</P> <P>Jay</P> Wed, 19 Apr 2017 14:14:13 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/ocd-with-odd-numbers/m-p/292863#M22735 BballJ 2017-04-19T14:14:13Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/ocd-with-odd-numbers/m-p/292864#M22736 🙋<span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":anguished_face:">😧</span><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":sad_but_relieved_face:">😥</span> Wed, 19 Apr 2017 22:03:27 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/ocd-with-odd-numbers/m-p/292864#M22736 Fairywings 2017-04-19T22:03:27Z
