Do you ever get unreasonably upset about particular things and you know it's not normal?
Whether anyone else admits it or not I know I'm not alone in this. Some people can't stand to hear other people chewing or popping gum. So you always eat tic tacs in twos or you like to eat all of one color m&m's first. Maybe you can't stand for people to be in your personal space or touching your things or you want something in a particular order or the flower side of the sheet goes up or one side is softer and that's the side you want touching you or some textures feel weird in your mouth or sweaters are itchy or the fringe needs to be straight or things fit better a certain way and you don't like when it gets messed up and other people just don't get why it's so important to you to have this silly little thing a particular way.
What's your compulsion?

I don't like hearing everyone's fights and it's usually right in my area where they do it between the building and the parking lot but what was even more disturbing is when I heard the lady upstairs commit suicide but didn't realize it till later when her daughter found her and I heard her grandson cry out" But I love my grandma! And I thought of my own grandson. But usually I just turn up the radio! -

Generally when i am upset inside(may be subtle) my sensitivity to abrupt or harsh sounds, tones of voice, whiny music can get me in a tizzy.

i feel the same way, like i go to these bible studies and theres people there that will shake their legs the whole time or tap with their pens when youre trying to listen, it gets real annoying, just not sure how to tell them that
