Leaving the house
Whenever I leave the house, I have to check every door is locked about 3000 times.

Also, when I walk to the shop, or drive anywhere, I can't go there and back the same way, I have to plan a route that is circular, if you get my drift?

I don't think the first one is uncommon
Well, not uncommon assuming that 3,000 is an exaggeration. I usually have to double check the door before I leave.

I do the same thing when I drive - it feels better to have done a 'circle'.

Yeah
3000 was a slight exaggeration in all fairness, in reality its more like 10 times for each door.

Doing a full circle always seems so much better than just driving there and then back. God knows why.

It's because
you know that you've done an average distance/time for the trip.

If you went the same way there and back, then going the other way might have been quicker. If you go different ways there and back, then it's taken the average time/distance. So you know you're not going the slowest way....

Shit, ask me how I know...

Hurts thinking about that.
