Well, because it's clearly deliberate and generally unnecessary.As opposed to spontaneous and uncontrolled.

It really isn't deliberate.(, Fri 2 Jul 2010, 12:32, closed)
Then why does one do it if it's not deliberate?As I say - I'm not an expert on the subject, but I can't help thinking that if it's annoying, frustrating or debilitating then, er ... don't do it.

Again...A fundamental failure to understand OCD (wikipedia is your friend). The *obsessions* themselves are debilitating. The *compulsions* are a reaction to the obsessions and are an attempt to eliminate or reduce the anxiety caused by them. The obsessions *are spontaneous and uncontrollable* which means that the compulsions are necessary.

As I said below - it seems the thoughts/obsessions as the engineNeed to be come to terms with and accepted.
Locking the back door 17 times is not going to make it safer, or lucky, or help you pass your exam.

It is deliberate.It's done in response to nagging anxiety that the sufferer cannot ignore without suffering extreme mental distress.
