It's an anxiety disorder. So, I don't really know what I have. Just weird little habits, I guess.

IIRC, the phrase for that is "compulsions," minus the obsessiveness. And the disorder. I think there's a few mental disorders that are pretty much normal human tendencies exaggerated to the point where they're detrimental to one's well-being, OCD and OCPD being among them.
