My life with OCD

Nov 09, 2007 20:22

I suffer very badly from OCD, and I find that writing can be very therapeutic. So I decided to write about coping with my condition. Here goes:

Nothing is right anymore
I'm no longer in control
Normal life beyond me
Fighting it every day
The light switch on and off
Eighteen times, every time
Longing to be released
From the grasp of my crazy brain.

Hey, I am sorry that you have OCD. I was diagnosed with that when I was 14. I knew that it was crazy checking things like I did but I just could not stop. I had to go on colipmorine (I suck at spelling). When my family went to Florida on our return flight was horrifying. I always tried to miss my meds so there I am on a plane and my meds are in my suitcase, my suitcase!!! In the luggage compartment. I started to have withdrawl symptoms really badly! My mum freaked as always my case was the last to arrive on the conveyorbelt! I have never seen my dad move so quick getting it out and dosing me up! I still have attacks when I am stessed I check stuff 4 times. I dislike it intensly. If I am travelling with someone they are driven mad by me cheking I have my passport, money and tickets not to metion asking them if they have everything!

Well hope you are OK,

I'll TTYAL!
