Saying hi!
Okay so I’m new to Tumblr and fairly new to OCD, so please forgive me if I say or do something weird.
My name is D and I was diagnosed with Pure OCD a year ago. Pure OCD is a form of OCD in which both obsessions and compulsions are mental, but it’s not less serious or debilitating than the kind that is usually portrayed in the media. What is more, OCD themes can and do change during the course of your life and I experience many of them on different degrees, often at the same time.
Fortunately, my life doesn’t just revolve around my mental illness. I am graduating in engineering and I have many hobbies (but little time). I love singing and even playing a little piano and guitar, I like to draw and to read and to write and to talk about social and political issues. I also listen to a lot of podcasts and enjoy watching movies.
I hope I’ll be able to convey what it’s like for me to do life while battling with Pure-O, feel free to ask or comment anything. 💖
