Sticky note poem from today while I run audio tech for theatre camp

Untitled (Clean Break): As soon as nothing matters It is impossibly easy to turn your shoulders inside out & welcome the breaking of promises the desecration of all your oaths — needle, here's my eye While you're at it can you take care of the heart-crossing & the pinky-breaking I only have so long before that old lightning is scheduled to strike me down

In Hornblower, Horatio hardly ever tells Bush what he’s going to do. And Bush blindly believes in Horatio. Bush's Loyalty to Horatio never wavers and it’s really touching to read in the books. And that’s what this piece is all about Blind Loyalty. I couldn’t pick what version I enjoyed more so I just deiced to put both up.

Hey do you know what rumination is?

Rumination is probably the most common type of OCD compulsion, but I rarely see anyone talking about it. I've talked to multiple people diagnosed with OCD who didn't even recognize it as a compulsion.

Basically, if you have OCD you have terrible intrusive thoughts. They can be about anything, but common themes are fear of being a bad person, fear of hurting someone, fear of contamination. etc.

Rumination is when you get stuck in a spiral. Rumination is when you spend hours catastrophizing, overthinking, analyzing, telling yourself it's going to be okay.

I'll say it again:

Rumination is a compulsion.

Rumination is a compulsion, and that means you have to stop doing it.

I did ERP (exposure response prevention) for my OCD with a therapist! For 9 months! And it did help, but the idea didn't really click until I found this website a couple years later.

And Oh My God. It made things make so much more sense, and I was able to pull myself out of an episode even though I wasn't in therapy or on meds at the time.

Genuinely if you have OCD, or even if you suspect you have OCD, I'm begging you to read some of these articles.

Like this was genuinely life changing for me.

Here are some of the ones that were most helpful to me:
