So that's what's wrong with me?

I'm sitting here with all of my clothes inside out, mentally marking off an awful lot of items on this page. Someone recently told me I act like I have Tourette's Syndrome because I'm constantly moving my arms. Sometimes it's the seams in my shirt bothering me. Sometimes I think it's just nerves. It feels a little better after I rotate my arm and crack my shoulder.
I'm an amusement park junkie who loves upside down, but can't spin at all. I also love online games. I've stayed up all night playing them.
I'm almost 41 and have worked through some of the listed things, but a lot of them still apply. I have to turn the sound off on Sims because the sound of them eating irritates the crap out of me.
I take my shoes off every chance I get. I used to tell my mother that my feet couldn't breathe... they needed air.
I could go on... I could write a book.
So what do I do now?
