> I do exactly the same. I don't know what it is. I've never been diagnosed with OCD but I definitely have obsessive thoughts. I'm also obsessive about cleaning- I put off doing it for as long as possible because when I start I become obsessed with things like reaching all the corners etc. So I suppose I have a ocd tendencies.

I'm NEVER free of thoughts- I'm constantly thinking of a million things an arguing with myself... It would be interesting to know whether other people do have blank periods.
