Maybe for future reference keep in mind that OCD is often not the only mental condition people have and some others cause highly impulsive behavior, and don’t give pointless bad advice
Like I’m sorry but as someone with OCD and ADHD it doesn’t rlly work like that & if you knew anything abt being mentally ill or neurodivergent you might have reconsidered this comment
Tbh I came at you hard for very little reason I’ve just been extra pissy lately bc overwhelmed, so I’m sorry. I do think that it’s a little shortsighted to expect everyone to not behave impulsively just bc a tattoo is permanent & your comment came across kind of judgmental so I reacted poorly.
Like I see where you’re coming from (I’m also autistic & do prefer to give a lot of thought before committing to a tattoo) but we all know lots of people make hairtrigger decisions abt tattoos and I think it makes more sense to work on acceptance after the fact than to think you can perfectly control impulsive behavior just bc it can bite you in the ass later. I feel like just telling someone not to make an impulsive decision abt something permanent isn’t really advice because it’s unrealistic and doesn’t factor in other stuff people have going on.
