@@grylltheonion They also threw OCD in one pot with cleanliness and a tendency for meticulous/smart organisation. OCD means, as the written-out term makes quite clear, compulsive behaviors. There may be a reason why it is typically paired with order and cleanliness, but you can have those traits without any hint of OCD. I mean, if every time you enter a room that reeks, you go and open a window, that's not OCD either. That means you don't want to endure stink while others are fine with it and provide a contrast that way by normalizing it. Besides, with Top Gear we also have to always assume there is exaggeration for entertainment purposes involved.

@@grylltheonion It's called obsessive compulsive personality and is not a mental illness. The many comments here from people who like to organise and label things, and who have self-diagnosed "OCD", some stating that they "realised" they suffered from it after seeing Top Gear, only goes to prove the harm that this kind of minimalising and trivialising of what is a very serious, life-changing health condition actually does. Liking cleanliness and order is not a diagnostic criteria for OCD. There is enough misinformation circulating about the condition already.

I love the "tracing the spanners on the wall" idea. If I get done with a project and I'm missing one, I know exactly what size it is and where it goes. There's no "oh what size was that" or "oh what went on that hook", it's just "oh i'm looking for x size spanner" and then you hunt for it. May not be an issue if you're only using one at a time, but if something like an earthquake or a Jeremy happened and all your tools fell off the wall you'd immediately know what went where. The only thing I'd add is drawing on the sizes in each tracing so you know for sure what you're looking for. ETA - If you write the size number in the outline, then if you lose a spanner you know which one you need to buy to replace it.
@Puckosar3 жыл бұрын
Or you just write the number of the spanner on the wall and match them, because you're gonna have to check the number when you go to grab the spanner anyway. Tracing the outline is a roundabout way of solving a problem that doesn't exist.

There's actually some, well, I don't think controversy is the best word for it, maybe debate, about trichotillomania and other body focused repetitive behaviors being considered OCD and not their own separate thing unrelated to it. My understanding is that it is listed under OCD in stuff like the DMS or ICD (no idea if I got the letters correct), and not separate. Many psychologist take issue with this, because, while these disorders are oftentimes caused and related to OCD, they sometimes aren't, and are more similar to an addiction or a coping mechanism. Many people have them and don't have OCD. In addition to OCD, it is often comorbid with things like anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I am mainly talking about this just to talk about it, not to disagree with you or anything.

I've always thought James as more autistic than having OCD. These traits could easily be attributed to ASD instead of OCD and James has quite a few other traits that seem more in line with that. Besides if he does have OCD I don't think it's completely about the sort of things they jokingly 'trigger' because that would be quite mean. On a side note - that last scene is hilarious. James timing and Richard's reactions are brilliant.

Regardless of whether or not he's actually on the spectrum (because I honestly don't think it matters) I've always related to him and I completely understand being lowkey driven mad by the other two.

The biggest tell to me that he actually has ocd is his insistence on finishing what he's saying. I have ocd and while I'm definitely different, there are also a lot of shared behaviors. He probably plays it up a bit for the show, but he definitely does has ocd. After that last scene, I can almost guarantee he was thinking about that watch and what he was trying to say for the rest of the night. Probably the next morning, too.

I'm bad with it, i don't interrupt people so i can finish my sentence but when i'm talking to people about something i have to make sure they understand what i'm saying. If they glance at their phone or the TV i'll pause what i'm saying or repeat the last sentence. Also if it's something i'm interested in like a hobby or a skill i end up talking too much. Some could say it's also a sign of ADHD

I worked in a shop (salse). All the (primary) mechanics have a full, outlined tool board (including mallets, hammers, and weird specialty tools). Including the holders for Bondhus keys, pens, punches, etc. One guy was moderately OCD. I pranked him by reversing EVERYTING on his bench. Hanging tools turned over, right -to-left was left-to-right. A newer mechanic asked why. I said, " Just wait". When he came in, he just stopped in his tracks, and stood still. He started drumming its fingers REALLY fast, against a steel pillar (cool sound, BTW). After about two minutes (some compassion), I asked: " Problem, Jim? " (drums faster:still amazing) "...I don't know..." ( "innocent" voice) " is anything...turned around? Here, I'll fix this: get a coffee. " So relieved, he later admitted how hilarious it was. Best. Shop. Prank.Ever. (They often end in, "that's not covered by Workmans' Comp" [ i know it's Employee Compensation, but I'm quoting mechanics]).

Wow, it is impressive that most of the people in the comment section have no idea what OCD actually is. If James's has anything that would be diagnosed at the clinical level it would be OCPD, it sounds similar but it is very different. OCD is a mental illness and to be diagnosed it should have a significant impact on your life, OCPD is part of someone's personality it is more similar to being a perfectionist. If you are similar to James then you should consider getting a diagnosis or support for OCPD if it is effecting your life significantly. OCD is not just preferring things a certain way or being uncomfortable when things are not how you like them.
@warmmilk60493 жыл бұрын
@Kissalude Well it is hard to tell the extent because of how scripted Top Gear is, but the whole nature of OCD compared to OCPD is different as often People with OCPD don't think they have a problem as it is just how they like things so the main thing it can affect is relationships whereas OCD is very distressing and the sufferer sees it as a significant problem and will often reach out for help for relief of their symptoms.
