A little bit.
I don't step on lines or cracks in the pavement if I can help it...but it doesn't stop me from doing so if I can't help it.
I almost always have to balance my food chewing on each side of my mouth...
I have a system for eating sandwiches...first I bite off one side of the hump. Then the other. Then the middle. Then there are a couple of variations...usually I eat the crust next...then often times I chew the sandwich into a circle....then bite one qtr...then the other...make an oval...you get the point...
Don't get me started on Riz crackers...
I get this chill in my neck that throws me into a pretty violent and noticable spasm...I *can* control it but it takes a great amount of focus and the urgency is extreem.
I also have ADHD which means two things...I have a hard time focusing on things if I don't want to. And 2) a often get thrown into obsessive patterns with certain subjects for long periods where I can do nothing but that thing....it's called hyperfocusing. But then I'll put it down for a while and not go back for a bit. For instance, I will go through phazes where I play the guitar for hours every day and do nothing but play guitar...can't do anything else...then I won't play it for a week or month...just a few minutes from time to time just to keep the ability. Other times I'll focus on something else....current obsession is genealogy of all things 
On the other hand I am an atypically dirty person and have no fear of germs, etc, at all...not even close to the average person's fears of such.

I count in my head. It's weird, but going up stairs, I count em. Waiting at a light, I start a count.......................pretty strange, and I don't know why. My wife is the OC cleaner though, sometimes vaccums twice a day. Wipes counters 10 times a day.

I have to wash my face and brush my teeth every night before I can go to sleep. I also have to have a glass of water by the bed even tho I usually never drink it.

I do this too. I count everything, dividing them into 4's. It really drives me nuts  |

Holy shit, dude, I am a subconscious counter as well and 4 is my number.....8 is even better. I will settle for even numbers, but 4 is the preferred unit. I have done it since I was about 7 or 8 years old. It used to be way worse (uncontrollable), but has subsided a bit over the years.
