Today I spent two hours in a meeting next to a guy who was coughing and blowing his nose. Then I walked home from work and had a minor (very minor) incident with a drunk homeless man. Got home, let the cat out, and it started sprinkling. Cat came back in with wet and dirty feet, then jumped on the bed.
But, I have not taken a shower, and have no plans to do so tonight. My OCD tried to convince me that I would be warmer after a shower, but I didn't cave, just turned the heat up.

i am 99.9% sure i have undiagnosed ocd(i've never sought help), so i know what it's like. the day before yesterday i freaked myself out by obsessing about my moral conflicts with yoga for so long that i felt like crap the next day and skipped my college class. my b/f was more than a little confused when i asked to come to his house at 1 pm, and even more so when after asking what was wrong, i replied "it's yoga's fault"...haha. Today, I sort of felt like exploding when I walked past a blood drive at my college(needles...eek). Soo yeah. That's life with ocd. But keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment. Have you considered seeing someone about your (probably) OCD?
ReplyDeleteI have(and still am), but a combination of things have kept me from actually doing so yet. 1)Therapy is expensive and the last time I truly wanted to go, I couldn't afford to. 2) I would prefer a Christian counselor and there isn't much of that in my small town. 3) The idea of talking to a psychologist freaks me out a bit. At this point, I think I would like to go somewhere, but I'm not sure where to go.
ReplyDeleteI hear you on those issues. Good luck with your decision and I hope if you go forward you find a great person.
