Chapter !3

While I was listening to the presentation I started to think about how my friends have incorrectly labelled  some of the things I do as OCD. For example, when I get a sandwich I dont like anything hanging over or going pass the edged of the bread. My solution is to take a knife and cut of the excess food. I do this just because I like for my food to look presentable if I am paying for it, not because of any fears.  Another example would be how often i clean the bathroom and how much effort i put into cleaning. But my philosophy and reasoning for it is how am i supposed get to clean in something dirty. Clearly these can be seen as compulsive behaviors. My question is, can you have OCD without being obsessive and just compulsive?
