I do that A LOT, and before that I was predicting how tall everyone (and myself) would grow because I was short... Is that an OCD thing or something else?

I don't know. If you find out, will you let me know? And vice versa ; )

I read a lot of medical stuff. Back when my dad was alive, he told me some symptoms he was having and I told him it sounded like he was having TIA's and he should go to the dr. He ended up going to the emergency room a few days later and the dr told him he was having TIA's. Stuff like that.

In no obvious order:

AS and autism
bunny rabbits!
Drawing and reading manga
Watching Miyazaki films
Family Guy and American Dad

I also have loads of OCD obsessions but I can't be bothered to list those becasue this is more about fixations...

What is the difference between an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder obsession and an Asperger's obsession?

I think you tend to repeat them over and over but i suppose that would be an AS obsession as well :?

The way I see it, AS obsessions are enjoyable and comforting. OCD obsessions such as worrying about how many different kinds of germs may be adorning my hand, are most definitely NOT fun.
