Another quick movie I made for school. It's about a 72 year old man with obsessive compulsive disorder (played by Matthew Basile). It's basically a documentary about this man and the problems he faces, laced with a few hopefully funny bits. Enjoy.
I should have mentioned, although the sufferer knows that it is irrational, they fear that if they don't perform the particular ritual then something bad will happen and this makes it too hard to resist.
It's a mental health condition which manifests in different ways; people always think of a person who is constantly washing their hands, but it can be any one of the examples shown at 6.00. Basically, if you have OCD you are compelled to contiually perform certain rituals to alleviate the anxiety of persistent fear in your life. They may be performed mentally as repetitive thought processes, or physically such as tapping, washing, cleaning, or doing things in symmetry - OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
For the first ten seconds I was suspicious that this was just a piss take, but thankfully I stuck it out and realised the intention. Well done on an excellent portrayal; OCD is something that needs much more public attention to be understood. It is wide and varied.
Tomorrow is national I LUV U day. If u get this that means u are Loved. Send this to 10 people in the next 14 mins and tomorrow will be your best day ever. Tonight at midnight your true Luv will realize that they Luv u something will happen to u at 1-4 pm tomorrow. It could be anythin Get ready for the biGGest shock of ur life If u break this chain u will be cursed for life
@Jeffiast OCD is something that should be taken seriously. It's a disorder and it's not funny.

The cure is to go against the grain (impulses).
