Well I mean the negative side of OCD causes anxiety....like I heard a lot of high level athletes have ocd, which causes them to drill and practice and think about their sport obsessively....so I think people with ocd may have tunnel vision a lot of the time, plus we’re lost in our heads so much of the time....I’m pretty much constantly obsessing about something, like a tv show or a project or a new hobby...the thing is obsessing about a tv show doesn’t cause me any distress so it’s not a negative thing

I Would say no! OCD always involve unwanted thoughts that make you feel scared and anxious. Im also a big harry Potter fan and at times, that was almost all I thought about! But it passes, so ENJOY this time you are "obsessing" about this amazing Story and try to get something out of it, like creating something or analyzing more the books and what they teach. I loved every thing about dementors and how you fight them... At times my anexiety was a dementor sucking my joy of life and I did my own patronum thinking about my most happiest powerful moments and that helped... Even I know this is not the correct way to fight OCD, this helps.

Is this perfectionism OCD or am I just stressed?
So this is not a very major thing at all, but it's something that came up yesterday and I couldn't sleep because of it. I'm a big fan of this video game, it's called Xenoblade Chronicles X. Well, after 10 years, it's finally getting a re-release on modern platforms. It's super exciting. From the clips I've seen, it seems to be a very faithful remaster that improves upon the imperfections of the original. However, what my brain is stressed about is that they sort of changed the user interface/font style of the game in order to make it more legible and less crowded. They also revamped some of the character models too. Not a bad thing at all, but I was such a big fan of the old user interface that all the new changes are stressing me out. It's making me want to purchase old hardware just so I can replay the original instead of the re release So all day I've been looking at side-by-side comparisons and getting disappointed by the new one. Which sucks because there is objectively nothing wrong with it! All of my dreams last night were about the game and I wasn't able to get proper sleep. So is this perfectionism OCD or is this an aftereffect of my other subtypes or am I just being extra nitpicky?

Reading OCD
Does anybody else experience OCD while reading? I feel like i need to remember everything in my book. And i have a feel that i need to completely understand EVEYTHING in my book (even very minor things) and if not, i feel as though im cheating or that the minor thing is very significant and that ill want to remember it even way after i finish the book (just for the purpose of knowing EVERYTHING about my book) Also, when a character says some minor things i feel the need to understand it completely or i feel the fear that i didn’t understand what the character actually meant. If youve struggled with this please give tips on how to overcome it
