happy ocd awareness month everyone!!! id like to take this time to credit my brain for being the biggest fucking bitch i know and for making me so very aware i have ocd this month. id also like to acknowledge my doctor for being the second biggest bitch i know and ignoring my symptoms to misdiagnose me. Id like to credit hand sanitizer for killing germs and letting me abuse it to the point where i got eczema. Id like to recognize mr pasteur for the propellance of germ theory and by means of the butterfly effect pushing the people closest to me away. I wanna acknowledge society for the morality spirals that whirl through my brain at unwanted times. Also— math! And every single greek pioneer ever for making me all too familiar with symmetry. I want to credit every single piece of media ever for making me think if i dont leave every interaction on a positive note, that person will die, suddenly, thinking i hate them. But also. Id like to thank my friends and family for sticking with me and helping me when my disability starts disabling me. Id like to thank you for not getting freaked out when i do my weird rituals and compulsions. I wanna thank you for getting angry at my disease, and not me. I love you, and i know at times its been hard, and it will be hard again— but i wont give up if you wont.
