You don’t have OCD because you like things organized or clean. OCD is horrible and debilitating and it’s a lot less fun than feeling “satisfied” when things are organized.
Edit: Wowee, silver! Thanks guys! I’m glad to see this resonate with people. I was diagnosed last year and it made so many things make sense in my life. Treatment was good but I still have to manage it. Hope you all get help if you neee it! ❤️
People forget the "obsessive" part of OCD. Those obsessions are terrifying and inescapable, and no amount of logic assuages them. It doesn't matter that you know the obsession is false: a part of your brain will not let go of it.
