had a thought yesterday omw home that i think the originators of superstitions were just ancient ppl with undiagnosed ocd

I mean cmon gotta admit believing things like breaking mirrors and stepping on sidewalk cracks give you YEARS of bad luck… major ocd intrusive thought vibes

also like some behaviors to avoid the bad luck like knocking on wood a certain number of times are extremely ocd coded

so it turns out that thing was overwhelming me so bad yesterday I had an anxiety fit lol convinced my mom to take me to the ER and the doctor was like… you don’t have anything

didn’t have the heart to tell her the situation with my friend was driving me insane literally but I’m going to look for a therapist first thing tomorrow

I’m having a really hard time lately bc I’m slowly coming to terms with the fact that I have doorslammed the person who’s been my best friend for years and I still have to talk to them about it. I feel horrible because I don’t want them to feel like I’m abandoning them but it’s come to a point where they can’t be happy for others anymore and I have to walk on eggshells, every attempt to reach out is hopeless and instead of dealing with the source and reason for their own frustrations, they have isolated themselves and become judgmental of others. Also, their taste in entertainment was really… problematic, in my opinion. It saddens my heart that a person that was once so sweet and who genuinely felt safe to be around, allowed themselves to become haters.
