Try the Savvy Broads' Obsessive-Compulsive Quiz
I know that obsessive-compulsive syndrome is a diagnosed psychological disorder, but truly, don’t we all have a few symptoms? As a retired librarian, I certainly have some eccentricities that could be called obsessive-compulsive.
So I thought it would be fun to do a Savvy Broads Internet survey:
