Volume on any device cannot be set at an odd number. Same for temperature.

These aren’t “OCD” unless they’re having a significant impact on your life.

When hanging out the washing the pegs on any particular item have to all be the same type and colour. I did actually catch myself subconsciously trying to colour coordinate the pegs with the item but thought that was going a bit too far.

I do all of these except the shoes that I know of, I feel I'm maybe missing out and need to start.....

Same here. And if I've got a car with temp control seperate for driver and passenger they've got to be set the same.

When I put the dinner out for me and Mrs F my dinner always goes in the right hand plate. Plus loads of others.
Can't do anything with odd numbers, always check everything in kitchen before bed...doors shut and locked, windows shut, all appliances off at the wall, oven off ( that's even when we've had takeaway too, or if nothings been open all day) and I can't just check I have to touch. Cans lined up in order in cupboards....do I need to go on lol xx

I've got to take the right carrier bag to whatever shop I'm going to. I'd feel unsettled taking an Asda bag to Sainsbury's for example
In the sports centre gym they have a mixture of makes of weight plates. I've got to have matching makes on either end of the bar so it's "equal". I'll move loads of weight plates about on the storage rack to get the right ones.

I have one that really bothers me, when I’m putting fuel in the car, say I’m putting £20 in, if I accidentally put £20.01 in I either have to go to put £25.00 in hoping to get it right this time, and if I make the same mistake and fill £25.01 I have to go and buy something for £4.99.
It sounds silly but it honestly drives me bonkers not being able to just let it go

I used to be a bit like that with petrol but it's now so difficult to put exactly £20 or whatever in that I'm cured. Used to do it in reverse as well when I was younger. I'd put £10.01 in on purpose and tell them I only had a tenner on me, always got let off the 1p
