Is it too early to tell if my kid has OCD? Because Im like 98% sure mine does. Have you ever seen the show Monk? Yeah that's gonna be Peyton in 30 years.
Why do I think this you may ask? I shall tell you.
Repetition
She has to repeat everything. For example she spent literally 20 min. today opening and closing the screen door. She will also run to one end of the room touch something specific run to the other end and touch another thing then repeat the process multiple times.
Cleanliness
She HATES having anything on her hands. If there is a spot of dirt or if she is eating and gets food on her hands she freaks out and I have to wipe it off. She could care less about her clothes or anything else but heaven forbid there be anything on her hands.
Open or Closed?
Every door in the house must be closed at all times. People freak out when the basement door is open and she wanders over to the stairs. I dont worry for a second because I know all she will do is close the door. If she is walking past an open door she will shut it with out hesitation and be on her way like its second nature.
Are these signs of OCD? Or is this normal kid stuff? I don't know because she is my only kid and Im not around other little ones enough to notice these things.
I have slight OCD. I have to feel even if this makes sense. If someone taps me on my right shoulder I have to tap myself on the left shoulder to make myself even. Or if I am walking down stairs and i land harder on one foot I jump with an equal force on the other.
I'm not really worried about it but Im just curious anyone elses kid do these things?
