Does this sound like OCD?

Hello, 1st of all in regards to the chewing of the mouth/nails & skin, this is just a habit out of boredom. In regards to the rest, this is certainly OCD, many people think OCD means Obsessive Cleaning Disorder, when in-fact it means Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and it comes in many different shapes and forms, from brushing teeth 50 times a day, to having to have pictures perfectly straight ect. I know this because I have it, my house has to be PERFECT, and I mean perfect, from top to bottom everything has it's own place and everything is neat and tidy. This may sound good, but when you're polishing at 3 in the morning before you can sleep, it's kind of annoying. I'm training to become a Doctor so I have quite a full-silled medical background but this is even better as I have a personal experience. The worst part is, its more psychological rather than habit so you can't just decide not to. See your doctor and they may refer you to see a psychiatrist who can help you express and overcome this disorder. Thanks and good look, Kieran.
