Hi! Just thought i'd tell my story which I think is interesting.
So, all my life i've had OCD, and i can't remember a time when didn't freak out about leaving the front door open or not look at a particular spot on the floor before i left a room. Things like that i'm sure you'll all be familiar with.
It came in spikes, sometimes i'd be convinced that i was crazy and it was s frustrating. sometimes i felt i could manage it.
so, ever since i can remember I've had this feeling, no, CERTAINTY that i was going to die at the age of 22. i turned 22 and accepted my end. it sounds morbid, but i thought there was nothing i could do. so i continued living my life in a very cautious manner.
so, a couple of weeks ago i turned 23!!! and i must say, while i don't think i will ever really realieve myself of these tendancies, that experience has certainly shrunk my fears. i still ritualise but the more i do it, the more i realise that these actions are empty and i have proof!!
woo!!! freedom.
