There was always this wish to be able to wake up, have a shower, put on my chosen clothes and to tie my shoelaces nice and tight and neatly.. and, above all else, slowly. Yeah, I suppose that’s what most people will do without even thinking about it in any given day, and that’s all fine and well but when you have OCD it doesn’t turn out to be as easy and straight-forward as that particular thing. I like my life. I like myself. I want to be me more than anything in the world right now. But I am also working at being me WITH OCD because, well, last time my mind checked in on my brain I had it 😊 👍 And Caite Feeley is correct – OCD is impossible. It always has been for me.
