So I thrive on repetition. I like eating the same food over and over again. It will change eventually. Like for a long time it was bbq chicken wings I'd eat every day and now it's yakisoba (Japanese noodles) every day. I love playing this online game and doing the same thing the same way over and over again on it. I'd spend 16 hours a day every single day doing video game repeats and eating yakisoba if they let me haha.

I like routines, but not excessive repetition. My mother keeps saying the same things over and over again, and it drives me nuts. I'm surprised I haven't seriously hit her yet.

Repitition rules my life, playing the same video ga,es, watching the same youtube videos over and over. Watching the same movie (django unchained) drawing sonic in the same pose over and over. Same meals.

I dont like trying new things.

Ah, yes... repetition...; I usually have a set of routines for a variety of scenarios that I tend to automatically follow, though I sometimes develop new ones or modify existing ones but this usually involves a degree of fore-planing, accounting for various details as to how the changes will affect other routines...

I've had problems like that before my OCD got treated. I'm not saying that's what's going on with you but if you have other OCD symptoms it's something to look into.

Same here. I MUST eat dry bread and omlette for breakfast. Tried eating something else for a change but I could hardly stick to it for 2 days before returning to my regular breakfast.

It's actually good when we do the same with our career. We can become better than our counterparts and flourish in our careers.

I used to do the same things over and over in an unhealthy way, where I wouldn't feel like I did it right the first time and had to do it better from the start. But I've basically trained myself to stop doing that.

Some daily routines I like to have, where I can just enter into a comfy auto-pilot mode.
