I'd like to think that I'm pretty even keel, however, there are a few things that will send my OCD into high gear! While I've never been diagnosed with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), there are certain things guaranteed to drive me crazy. A few of those things include cabinet doors that aren't fully shut, improperly folded towels, I mean, they don't fit right in the cabinet if you don't fold them correctly, things that are out of line, like crooked pictures or not having furniture centered, or un-read notifications on my phone. On second thought, maybe I'm not as even-keeled as I thought I was.

The stove in the picture below sets my teeth on edge. If I had that in my house, I'd feel constantly anxious. It turns out I'm not alone. I asked Shreveport-Bossier residents what puts their OCD into overdrive and they were happy to share. Strangely enough, many thought it would be a good idea to burn down the house from the photo below and start over from scratch! Check out some of my favorite responses below.
