What Kind of Disorder is this?

- i always have to do something with my hands ..like i can't sit still at all .; i have to fiddle with my pencil or play with my hair or bite my nails

- Like any middle school student, i want to get sick so i can get out of school. But, for some reason, i can't bare to stand near a sick person or i start freaking out

- I used to do this before. now, i rarely do it-- if i itch my right hand, i have to itch my left hand just so it balances things out

- i worry about the lives of inanimate objects-- like if i step on my old stuffed animals, i have to say "sorry" to it, and i have to put it in a safe place

- I have a VERY messy room. but i cant stand if my school binder has just one piece of paper sticking out

what kind of disorder is this? thanks :D

and, btw-- im pretty sure i don't have OCD so don't mention that disorder unless you're absolutely sure of it.

Update:

the 3rd ones refers to everything i do.. like if i touch my left side of the head, i have to do the same for the right

or if i bump mu right shoulder, i have to bump my left shoulder

    You might actually have OCD. It is a kind of anxiety disorder

    You have obsessions such as:

    -not being able to sit still

    -worrying about inanimate objects

    -Worrying about paper sticking out of your binder

    And you have ritualized behaviors (Compulsions) that come in response to these obsessions like:

    -fidgeting

    -saying sorry to lifeless objects

    -touching one side of your head and then the left.

    Source(s): I am no expert. I only took a semester of Advanced placement general Psychology and OCD was one of the disorders I learned about so your problem seemed to be very much like OCD. See a real expert for a real diagnosis.

    See a doctor. It is very dangerous to ask for diagnoses on the internet.
