A Habit That Stuck I've got quite a few, but one in particular was talking to myself. no im not crazy ? I was an only child growing up, so I would vent to myself. For some reason, it just stuck with me & whenever I'm alone I sometimes stil talk to myself. List yours below I have like a million ideas flowing through my brain, I'm sorry
I've always been obssessed with keeping multiples of five, so now whenever I do something that involves an amount of some sort, it always has to a be a multiple of 5. (Not really sure if that qualifies as a habit)
speaking of multiples of 5, the volume on anything ー television, radio, my laptop, my phone, et cetera ー NEEDS to be divisible by 5 or else i get anxious. it's to the point where i check the volume to make sure it is divisible by 5 as soon as i turn it on. no 26 or 31... it's 25 or 30, even though it makes zero distinction in the actual volume. i just can't concentrate knowing the volume isn't divisible by 5.
when i was younger i used to have intense thoughts that someone lived in my heating/ac vent and after my showers i would cover the vent with a blanket or something so they wouldn't see me nakèd. i knew at the time it was irrational but i couldn't help but obsess over the possibility that there was someone in there
My sisters and I used to hold our breath when passing by cemeteries. We told each other that whoever took the first breath would be haunted by the ghosts of people buried there. I still hold my breath when passing by to this day. There is a cemetery in town that is on a busy road with long stop lights. Sometimes, I drive around it with my sisters in the car while pretending to hold my breath just to watch them struggle. ??
