Hey guys. I would like for someone to recommend to me just what the heck should I do with myself right now. This may seem to you that I am joking, and I can see why would someone think that, since my problems are most of the time hilarious, but the suffering part is preety real to me. It would help me out some advice, like I said, what should I do now? And what would you think if you were faced with this problem? Ok, here it goes.
My current problem is this one:
I posted something on a forum recommending a book about lets say making a orage cake- it started this way. Big deal right? But immediatly after I started to think stuff like: What if someone buys that book and then for example a robber comes and says something like: Give me 10 bucks or you die, and this person doesn't have it because that she bought that book, would I somehow be guilty about that? Or what if the person dislikes that book, and never makes orange cakes again'? What if for example just that book is a bad book, and she doesn't ever make orange cakes again, and orange cakes could benefit these persons life a lot.
I very recently have started to think stuff in this manner, it's crazy, I didn't do this before. I NEVER had such problems. The problem style is always something very stupid like this, and then I am only peacful when I find a solution, the problem is, it takes a lot of time... It's ocd right? How can I fix this? It helpes me to find a solution (If you want a example of other, even more stupid problems, ask) but right after, like one hour after TOPS, this means, sometimes less, I "invent" a new identical problem. The word invent imples I consiculsly invented it, which isn't QUITE so, because me or my mind make up these problems from no where. I always want to find a solution, do you see?
It would help me if you answered, for example, what would you think in such a situation? Or since solving problems has no long term benefit, what do I do now? It seems to be like a resposability ocd or a pure-o ocd, but what do people usually do to fix this? I never had these kinds of problems before. I admit that I think that if I solved this situation, the whole disorder would vanish, but I've read that it isn't so on the net.... Plus, I've had like 3 or 4 of these problems, and a different one comes along, that's the same style.
So what would you advice for me to do now? What do I do to solve this problem? How would you solve it? What would you think/do? Hope someone can help me out. Thanks for reading really!

) and some loser sticks a knife in my face and demands money, which I now don't have. So the guy decides to kill me but then suddenly this gorgeous hunk jumps out of nowhere and buggers the knife guy up and falls in love with me and we get married and have orange cake at our wedding. All because of you and your book!!!
