I wish I could tell you exactly what’s the matter. Sometimes I feel like something terrible has just happened when actually nothing has happened. Other times, I expect the sky to fall down any minute. Most of the time I can’t point my finger at something specific. Still, I feel tense and jumpy. The fact is that I am tense and jumpy almost all the time. Sometimes my heart beats so fast, I’m sure it’s a heart attack.
Little things can set it off. The other day I thought a supermarket clerk had overcharged me a few cents on an item. She showed me that I was wrong, but that didn’t end it. I worried the rest of the day. I kept going over the incident in my mind feeling terribly embarrassed at having raised the possibility that the clerk had committed an error. The tension was so great, I wasn’t sure I’d be able to go to work in the afternoon. That sort of thing is painful to live with.

The patient was a 49 -year -old -man whose main symptom was an obsession with the number 13. If he heard the word he felt a “shock” and experienced a subsequent period of acute anxiety. His everyday life was a continuous effort to avoid any reference to 13, so much that his activities were seriously handicapped. In some way or another, it seems as if everyone was always saying 13 to him. If they met him in the morning they would say, “Oh good morning,” or later in the day it would be “Good afternoon” (13 letters in each). He stayed in bed on the thirteenth day of each month, skipped the thirteenth tread in a stairway, and found it necessary to count letters and phrases, his steps, and streets, to avoid the number 13.
