Bless his girlfriend, she is really understanding & doesn't get frustrated when he is doing his rituals. It's so hard :/

@ghostadv07 Fuck off, trying to make smart ass comments isn't funny when it comes to mental health and shit. Idiot

OCD sucks, I always think it would leave but it just changes form, fluctuating in intensity. first it was compulsive washing plus magical thinking now it's pure O, recently transitioned to obsessive Google usage... Not even mentioning the extreme social isolation and anxiety it causes. I envision how my life would've progressed vastly different for the better if I had never been afflicted with this shit. The mental health care where I live is a fucking joke(Calgary, AB, Canada)

that mail man is doing similar stuff to what i do. for example im always sticking my head under the desk during class about 15 times a lesson and i get 6 in a day i have about 20 other wierd stuff i do as well. i have been doing this since i was about six and i will be 15 soon. the reality is that you have to be strong enoughf to stop it. i managed to do it for about a year and before i noticed i started doing it again. This proves you can stop it but you have to be careful not to start it again

Makes you curious how the mailman is able to keep his job when just that one mail box kept him there that long

@giaisbomb Judging as a man with OCD myself, it is likely he wasn't checking the mail, but simply repeating the motions until they felt right. This precisely what I do.
