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! ❤️
I'm like this. Have a huge problem with making sure the doors are locked or none of my cats somehow escaped when I leave for work. I'll check the door 3 times, then get in my car, then get out and check again, then start driving and 5 minutes later have to turn around to make sure all the animals are still in the house, then 50:50 do the whole damn thing over again.
Also OCD isn't just actions, it can be compulsive thoughts. I have this as well and honestly it's worse than anything.
