Is it normal to close every door and drawer??

This is a silly, harmless thing that started off as a preference... Whenever I am in a room I have to have all doors and drawers closed. If I am round my boyfriends or friends house always have to ask to close the door of whichever room we are in. At home, I have to close every single door and drawer in my bedroom else I cannot fall alseep. For a while it wasn't that bad and I could ignore it, but now it is actually a bit obsessive. It's not like I go mad if I don't close them, it just irritates me a lot because I think that it looks lazy and sloppy to leave them open. It's the sort of thing that you just continue to notice until it is sorted. Anyway could this be a weird or minor OCD?? Does anybody else do a similar thing??

  • Op this is OCD my mom has this and she's exactly the same, I can tell because you said it irritates you. I'm guessing that you get a little annoyed when someone comes to your house and accidentally leaves stuff open, like your doors. But yeah like I said I'm pretty sure you got OCD.

    Why would anyone just leave drawers open for no reason? Yes it's normal to keep them closed unless you are needing something in said drawer

    If desk drawers or small ones are open it bothers me. I always close them. I also see no reason for a drawer to remain open
