ocd and embarrassing situations?

this may seem really,really unrealistic to be bothered by...but here goes. I went to the mall earlier,finally let myself enjoy things,since my ocd has been preventing that. bought some clothes. but then i went to the food court,and after coming t of the restroom I though,I should check my pants zipper again,I almost always double check its zipped. I did not this time. I went to two more stores to buy things like video games and hobby stuff. I get to the grocery store,and realize I should have double checked. zipper was undone. and now,every time I look at the stuff I bought from the last two stores,its all I think of. I don't want to go and play those games and remember that,but I am sure I will. I completely want this out of my head,but it keeps coming back,it's low issue compared to other problems,but im so ashamed and embarrassed, I dont want to finish a game and think,yeah,my zipper was undone when I bought that. it's so freaking weird.

Depending on if it's the idea of your zipper being undone or the constant bombardment of the particular thought, you'd probably handle this differently. Does the idea that your zipper is undone cause you anxiety, or is it that the thought is constant and intrusive rather than the idea behind it?

Hey, when you go to the bathroom just pull down your pants without undoing them, another thing you could do is buy pants with buttons on the front (alot of skateboard pants have that.) anyways good luck
