I have OCD and on that score alone found BB8 intolerable.

How does Nikki Grahame cope in the Big Brother house?

    Endlessly counting Coolio's remaining hairs.

    Walking up to the Diary Room door and pressing the button so she can request some cleaning wipes, then walking away and walking back to check she had actually pressed the button, repeat, could waste a good few hours doing that.

    I'm not sure to be honest, I think it would depend what she has OCD about?

    I don't know if I'd be able to cope with being in the BB house at all, I have OCD when it comes to cleanliness, I have to carry an antiseptic handwash gel with me at all times, am constantly washing my hands and I don't use my bare skin to open doors, I have to use my sleeve. I'm also starting to develop OCD about neatness and organisation, everything has to be straight, and organised. But I'd like to think I'd be able to control it as much as possible in the BB house, perhaps Nikki is trying to do the same.

    I don't have OCD, I have CDO - it's like OCD, but the letters are in alphabetical order - LIKE THEY SHOULD BE!

    You sure they shouldn't be in reverse order?

    Iffe is the other one who springs to mind this year. She found it almost intolerable at first in there which left her in a constant state of anxiety. She would have to stay up half the night cleaning which left her exhausted the next day.

    I didn't know she suffered from that.....had a neighbour had to do that checking her back door was locked every time she went out......back and forward for ages..... shame.....

    Do you have a problem with OCD not being in alphabetical order, and have to list letters in alphabetical order ?

    "Suffering" is a disabling word. I have O.C.D but I most certainly don't suffer from it. I live with it. Much more enabling and makes life easier.

    :D:D:D That's one of the best posts today.

    Shouldn't laugh though, OCD must be horrible and life controlling. My commiserations to the OP.

    that's how it started with me, it's a slippery slope.........
    only joking :D:)

    Did actually go out once and forgot to lock the door, think this is where it came from. Do you think I have a genuine problem, or just need a 'klep' round the ear.

    cant stay, have to go and check the irons turned off ... :)

    Luckily no problems in that direction, just the going upstairs and then forgetting why I was there, only to come downstairs and remember again.....:)

    Same with you, I think that is usual.....klep round the ear.....lol...:p

    OMG, I do that to, this is getting scary, what with us being neighbours AND having the same symptoms! :) I like you sunny days, you've cheered me up.

    Gotta go though, just gotta check all the tins are round the right way.:)

    i don't have a problem with cleanliness.
    i have a thing with numbers... i have to do certain things a certain number of times (for example i have to sip out a cup 4 times on each side of my mouth...) so i think i'd be fine.

    I have COD, I'm also dyslexic.

    I wouldn't cope with me COD in that house, I haven't got the cleanliness thing, but crikey, there would be difficulties there.
