Thank you for your replies, Elle and Pegasus.
I'm actually not worried about my "practical obsessiveness". As you say, if ever it stops me functioning then I will worry but on the whole, it helps me to achieve. I totally understand P. about having to have the house tidy before you can write the paper. Every time before I have a shower, my bedroom must be tidy and prepared first, my clothes and toiletries laid out ready to use immediately after.
I feel sorry, Elle, that you experience OCD. I know many people do and it must be terribly difficult to live with. By comparison to that, my own life is, I expect, much easier, but then I have most problem with dissociation. That has been my hardest challenge.
My very best wishes to you both,
For now,
milahra
