A lot of the behaviors that make up the disorders are normal behavior in the commensurate circumstances. It's only a problem in extreme cases or in inappropriate circumstances. For example, separation anxiety is normal for children to experience when they lose sight of a parent or a parent dies. It only becomes a problem when an individual, supposedly independent, finds the feelings interfering with the normal execution of daily life and activities.

The symptoms may seem familiar because we have all experienced many of them in the course of our lives. They just never became problems for us.

No need to be. Think of that list as a psychologist's inventory listing.

My wife thinks I have OCD just because I try to make sure that the double switched lights are off when both switches point down, not up. To me, off is down. I am more comfortable when I walk by and see the switches in the right configuration. I suppose that is a bit of a compulsion but it would only be a problem if it bothered me so much that i would go behind her and put them in the right configuration. I never do that... very often... ever.

Don't feel bad I do the same thing with light switches also we have gas stove always before bed or leaving the house check to see if the line is straight up on all handles found out that this stove if you lean on it the handle will move to let gas leak out my son caught it before bed one night kept asking what I been cooking when I went in to check one of the handles had moved when I leaned on it when putting something away in the cupboard above the stove now I'm paranoid about it

That isn't possible while maintaining the designed function of the switches. As one is switched the other switch reverses it's function. When the light is on, both will be up or down.
When the light is off, one will be up and the other down.

If it's cross wired it will be one up and the other down for on and either both up or both down for off.
You need to look at the light. If it's on flip the switch the other way to turn it off.If it's of flip position of the switch and it will magically light.

Semper Fi

Except that isn't how those switches get wired. I'll post a simpler circuit diagram later this evening when I get into my office. It requires 3 wires, not just two.

Please disregard the practical wiring diagram I posted above. I didn't pay enough attention when I posted it. It is for a different purpose. The following is the correct diagram. I'll provide a proper schematic as soon as I get a chance to draw it up. (NOTE: I just read your text again. If I understand what you said, I may have been in error to contradict you. Sorry.)

Seventy years ago, I was trained as an Electronic technician, specializing in B-52 Bomb
Nav. systems. These diagrams defeat me. Some explanation is needed!
