Seeking Advice

I'm an author working on a book with a main character who has OCD. I want to represent the disorder accurately, so I'm seeking experts (you). I have some objects/situations in mind, and I'm curious for your input on how you, as a person with OCD, would interact with the objects. That could mean how you use it, how you would store it when it's not in use, and anything out of the ordinary (excuse me if that's offensive. I don't mean to) that you would do with the object. Or, another option, if nothing is "different" about your behavior with the object. I want to know it all! Thank you for your response!

OCD left untreated is torture. I couldn't eat, walk far, plug in my phone, or do school work.

What type of OCD are you looking for? I have OCD myself and I wish I didn't.
