Answers:

You're making it sound worse than it is! I have been living with bad OCD along with Tourettes Syndrome and a learning disability for my whole life, since I was 5 years old. You think you've got it bad? Did you fail 2 grades in high school and drop out in your last year because of all of the horrible experiences of other kids making fun of you and getting into fights over it and not being able to learn in the same way as any other normal person? Every time you go to get into a car do you have to open and close the door 2 times just so it's an even number? Every time you do something with your right hand you have to do it again with your left? Or if you're writing on a piece of paper you HAVE to use pen and if you make a mistake, even if you have been writing for 20 minutes you have to throw out the piece of paper and start all over again?.... you have MILD OCD... there are lots of people that have it way worse than you such as myself, you don't see me wanting to give up my life! I have a fiance and a daughter... if someone like me that has the condition so bad plus some extras can have a good life, even though I can't work and seem normal in public than you can too! I'm not trying to make you feel bad, I'm just trying to show you that it is possible to have a normal life even with a condition.

I have OCD along with Tourettes



OCD is a very common illness! and really is not that abnormal....even i have some traits, everyone does! and if you have a mild case then dont worry! think of the severe people they have it a lot worse! you will be fine!

All you have to do is remember this:
You're hands will never be completely clean. You can never get all the germs off. You need to keep washing them.



Yu shouldnt think like tht, yu should be glad tht yu found out when yu did. Yu will be ok just stay positve n learn how to deal with it n educate others abt it.



dont loose hope! :D OCD is very treatable. :) <3 <3 :D ~~~



EVERYbody has mild OCD. Get over yourself.



its not the end of the world....
