Routines, rituals, habits and repetition are all part of OCD so yes - how you're feeling sounds like 'normal for OCD' to me. Have you ever had any help with your OCD?
No never got any help as an ex made me feel like a fruit cake it's only now with my partner that is supportive and made me face up to it that I know I need help
Yes OCD is very routine. Its like being addicted to drugs i was once told by a therapist. The more you feed it the worse it gets. Its also very habit like. And as you will know its extremely hard to break it.
I find it hard when I'm stressed I'm a lot worse but being knocked out off my routine but it is like a drug
