Yes my dear that is definately a sign of OCD... When I was young .... a teenage boy I used to do such rituals because if I dont do them I will be sick in stomach at school and will have nausea and vomit ( I had a big phobia of vomiting). So I used to do such strange things like going round the kitchen table for a certain number of times ( normally it would be 10 times, 10 for me is my favorite number) or switching the lights on and off for ten times . If I dont do them I will think that I will be sick at stomach at school... Now fortunately I dont do them anymore although I have when I go to the toilet I wipe my bottom for 4 times .( 4 is even number is good , 3 is odd number so it is bad and is related to satan) .. Go talk to a psychologist about this and tell her everything you experience ... There is help out there but go and take it!!!!
