I have obsessive compulsive disorder as some of you may already know : it is not severe and is manageable
without medication : now am obsessed with symmetry but does manifest itself in rather bizarre ways too
I cannot put empty crisp packets in bins or look at my wet footprints in a public space or wear anything
with patterns or be attracted to any woman with asymmetrical tattoos or write rough notes in a pen
now none of these things are hard to do or not to do but anxiety can arise if they are not followed
through : it does not last long but it is there nonetheless : I am used to it so it does not bother
me and some have it much worse than I : am all alone and shall spend the remainder of my
life in that state but that does not bother me either : just keep busy and avoid contact with
humans : I also have anxiety but that is preferable to depression which I no longer have

A MIND IS LIKE A PARACHUTE : IT DOES NOT WORK UNLESS IT IS OPEN
