I always seem to find myself looking at the clock at 2:22, as well as 12:34, 11:11, 6:06, 8:13, 3:33, 1:23, 6:54, and 4:56.

A few times, I've looked at the clock and it was 11:11:11 and also 3:33:02...... 333 X 2 is 666. And also I've found myself looking at the clock at 6:06:06 a few times too.

Another thing is, I was born at 2:22 in the afternoon.

It's really weird.

You're seeing those numbers because you're watching for them. It doesn't mean a thing.

Shortly after the events of 9-11-01, I kept noticing that fairly often, when I'd go to my room in the evening, the time would 9:11pm. It kind of freaked me out then, until I realized that lots of times it would be another, random time. I just didn't pay any attention when it wasn't 9:11pm. We humans like to look for meaning in all sorts of things, and we tend to find things when we're looking for them.

I still have moments when I'm looking up at the computer clock and see 9:11. I mean, it could be 9:12 , 9:15, 9:05 so why is it 9:11? I'm not thinking of the time other than that until it's lunch or time to leave from work

I use to get high all the time after work last winter and looked at the clock at 7:34pm. It was seriously weird, but at the end of the day it's all just crazy randomness.

Moderator cut: edit it's possibly just a form or sign of obsessive-compulsive disorder. If so don't get upset as many people have OCD, I think I do a bit, and it doesn't have to be all that bad. I find the repetition of certain thoughts or actions useful in remembering things.

If it bothers you you can try relaxation techniques and maybe a mild anti-anxiety medicine. For me OCD tendencies get a bit worse if I sleep poorly or am ill. So try to get enough sleep, eat right, and maybe get a flu shot.

If it's not like anything OCD than it's probably just a coincidence.

I don't know.. My friend and I went to play bingo on 07/07/07 and thought we would play 7 Lucky 7's (the game where you pick your own seven numbers 4 times for a total of 28 numbers times 7 of them.. ) well guess what? we couldn't keep up because when you write your own numbers they aren't necessarily in order.. it sure was funny though!

This is the best answer I can come up with.
