Do atypicals have this obsession with keeping everything neat around them? I always keep my car clean and house, because I can't stand a little dirt being around me? I know it's good to be clean anyways, but can atypicals have an obsession with it?
Yes especially people who have certain faiths , I think OCD can come from physical and or psychological abuse .Do atypicals have this obsession with keeping everything neat around them?

For me it is science. Hospital aquired infections, cancer causing viruses, drs who wont wash hands......truly docs should hire people like me and we would save lives. "Dr., you just touched that pen. You are now CONTAMINATED!!!"
Of course health care in USA has nothing to do with saving money or lives . It is about money
Omg. To describe the chaos of American "healthcare" would take a year. It is supposed to be mandatory but no one is fined. Some are, i guess. It is the Wild West. If you work, you might get it thru work. But it costs employers so many refuse to hire the amount needed to have to buy it.then you must buy your own. It can be like $700 a month with a $5000 deductible!!
If you are old or disabled and worked, you get Medicare(there are extremely complex rules that no one knows so there are streams of Medicare lawyers. Medicare only pays 80 percent. Then u have to buy a Medigap plan, but u cant have them under age 65. So many are also on Medicaid.
Medicaid is for the poor but in some states you have to be poor AND have medical need to get it.
It sucks. To keep it, you are never allowed to have more than $2000 ever. You cant marry (unless they are re on it too) cant work (!!) cant own property and in reality, it is a LOAN because in the end, you have to give them any property you have. The Medicaid Estate Recovery Act.
If you get hurt and get a settlements on either medicare or medicaid, you have to set aside the money for them!! Medicare Set Aside.
Then if u have no insurance u just die.
Great place to live!! Yeah if u are right next to Johns Hopkins u will be fine. In Tenessee medical missionaries were going THERE instead of Uganda.
Nightmare.
Thank God i am Canadian.
Everyone is different, so I'd say yes. Some may be obsessed with cleanliness, some may not be bothered by disorder.
I think people here are looking at this in a OCD perspective a bit too much. A need to be clean can happen in people with autism without it being an obsession in the sense of OCD.
I can't speak for other people so I'll just talk about myself. In my case, I like to keep my desk, bedroom, and home nice and neat because I find order and organization relaxing. It's calming. Having things tidy and organized doesn't distract me. I know where everything is and why I put it there in that exact place so I can easily find it later.Do atypicals have this obsession with keeping everything neat around them?
