Weird habits that you have

[chrisnajar]

Anyone in here has weird / rare / unusual habits that can share? It would be funny to read what those are!

 

I have one: watching scary stuff at night. Looking at scary stuff is like a rush that I love to feel before going to bed. I know... it's weird, but this is precisely what the post is about.

 

Lots of people watch tons of pornography before going to bed. Not me. I like to look for scary things. The range of scary videos is soooo wide. Ghosts, objects that move in a house for no apparent reason, shadows, pictures that are taken and later when revealed there are faces on them... UFOs, scary phone calls (usually from dead people), screams from hell, reversed music with apparent satanic messages...

 

So what I do when I get into one of those marathons is to first do all the tasks that I have to do outside my bedroom. For example, feeding the dog, brushing my teeth, peeing, making sure that all doors are locked properly, making sure that no electric appliances are connected (like the kitchen, microwave, etc) and once I notice that everything is set, I get into my room, lock my door and that's when the show begins. I'm supposed not to come out of my bedroom until next day.

 

Sometimes is a scary movie. So I turn off the lights, and start watching stuff. I have 3 Britney posters in my room and when the light goes down you can barely see her face. So one of my fears is that one of those nights she will move her face or eyes in an evil way. Sometimes I feel like an ugly hand with long fingernails is going to touch my back. Then I might feel that the same is going to happen, but with my feet. Like some entity is going to grab my feet when I step out of the bed. 

 

The worst part is when I hear a strange noise outside my room. Like in the living room or the porch. Not something evil, but probably a cat, or the wind. So I cannot sleep unless I check again that everything is in order... who knows... there can be a burglar outside. So opening the door and seeing the house in darkness is like the movie Paranormal Activity. You have the sensation that the lamps are moving and that something is watching you. You are afraid of watching certain areas of the house like the sofas or the mirrors (a piece of advice: don't ever look to a mirror by night!) because you might see an ugly face or something much worse.

 

What about that sensation that you feel when you turn off the lights in the house and as you rush to your bedroom you feel that something is going to grab you from behind? Well, I have news. You feel something weird, because there is actually something there. It won't touch you, but you feel its presence. Maybe one day I'll talk about it.

 

Any weird habits anyone?

Omg I have the exact same habit waha!

And do you always have to think whether you're gonna close or let your door open?

If it's open, I can see the dark hallway and bathroom

If it's closed, I might be trapped with some demon in my room

No need to think about that. Door must be closed before start. Because if you let that open you might let something in. Or the door could shut suddenly. 

 

As I said, the worst part is when you have to get out of the room for some reason. Because you might be scared enough and chances are your mind will trick you into something.

 

Also, when you look at scary stuff like movies, videos related to witchcraft or satanism or evil things, you are certainly opening doors for those things to come to you. It's like inviting those things. 

 

I watched The Conjuring all alone at home. F*ck that was scary.

I watched "A Haunted house" (the serie, not the movie)

AND GOD FUCKING HELL

 

Also, I visited this forum about all sorts of urban legends and shit

 

That was such a FML moment

I'm quite a control freak. At first all things that needs to be done needs to be done, otherwise I can't sit down and do something I enjoy. It's exhausting and I can get pretty annoyed if things don't go as I imagined.

 

I'm also very anxious, always have to move something. Even when I don't feel nervous, I still rub two of my fingers against each other like I'm meditating lol. I'm not aware of this though, my boyfriend always points this last point out.

Well, doing what needs to be done is not bad, as long as you don't freak out too much... like you know, throwing stuff at others, screaming or reaching a critical mass.. hahaha. That is much better than lazy people who never do what they have to do.

 

About moving, I am a drummer myself so I am always hitting my belly or thighs with my palms, or hitting the desk at the office with my fingers, while listening to music. It's a hell of a fun for me but not so much for the people around who look at me in disbelief. My close colleagues are used to that now... they see me most of the time moving my feet and hands and they know what I'm doing, they just don't react anymore.

 

However I think that others see me like a weirdo. I don't care, but still...

i used to be a BIG TIME nail biter but i started getting my nails manicured and ive left them alone for 3+ months now. I sometimes "gnaw" on them as a nervous habit tho.

This only I just do it because I'm bored and it gives me something to do... Also I didn't get a manicure or anything, but I do gnaw at them sometimes too

Lol I don't freak other out that much, just myself. I do know it's a weird habit, because I could make it much easier for myself by just relaxing a bit more. I also think the hand thing has to do with my anxious not so calm energy.
