Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, OCD, is an anxiety disorder and is characterized by recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and/or repetitive behaviors.
This is not really a disease for survivors but I would say we have to work on the repetitive behaviors without fail. I open and close my fingers while riding in a car, watching TV or a movie, while listening to someone talk to me. going to sleep. Other movements are not quite so obvious but they continue regardless of the situation. My therapy is more important than the disapproving stares of people.
These are actually wanted thoughts and behaviors.
Keep them up.
If we didn't need to do these exercises so often, we wouldn't. I write done most info. I get even though there's a good possibility that I'll remember it. However, I do believe the eye and hand coordination along with what the brain is doing with the memory are all connected somehow.
