Today feels promising…
It’s sunny today! I’m actually wearing a tanktop and I’m not freezing cold. This is amazing. A breath of fresh air almost. And listening to Gordon Chambers, Jazmine Sullivan, New Edition… nice soothing music. I didnt get a chance to clean my room yesterday/last night like I had planned to because the husband hit me with some really really bad news concerning our already maxed out credit card. The stress that I felt was so overwhelming. I started having a … Continue reading
Freeways & Fears.
I’ve driven on the freeway more times than I can count. I know the freeways I drive on like the back of my hand. But, it was always with someone else in the car. I’ve never driven on the freeway alone. I cant. I have this weird unexplainable fear of driving on the freeway alone. A fear I dont understand myself, I’ve driven with my husband asleep the whole 2hrs home from San Jose. So what’s the difference between someone … Continue reading
My different types of OCD.
Not everyone has the same exact type of OCD, there are general categories but everyone’s OCD is different and fits to them. And in most cases, you can suffer from more than one type of OCD. For me… I suffer from contamination, intrusive thoughts, “happy thoughts” and hoarding. When I was younger, my friends would constantly mention that I was a pack rat. I was obsessed with saving papers from school, letters, etc when I was younger. And as I … Continue reading

I have a mini laptop (that I’m actually blogging on right now in Panera Bread) that I bring around with me sometimes. I never brought the charger with me because I didnt want to get it dirty. But the battery died on me two months after I got the laptop, so unless its plugged in, it wont turn on. At all. Fry’s said it would cost well over $100 to get a battery replacement so I just stuck it in … Continue reading
OCD & being married…
My husband was with me before my OCD turned full blown. And he was with me when it was at its worse as well as when I decided to start therapy (he actually came with me to every single therapy session I had. Except for one, cause it was an hour before I had to start work). So when we got married, he knew exactly what he was getting into! I know my husband says that its okay, the way … Continue reading
Rituals.
I have a couple of rituals. Some I do every single day, others I do when the situation comes up. Morning Ritual Every morning, I have a ritual. I cant do anything until I finish this ritual or my entire day will feel “off” and most likely, I’ll be irritated the entire rest of the day. And it has to be in this order. This is my current ritual. Roll up fleece blanket and place next to towels (which are … Continue reading
Hello.
Hello . I’m not good at writing first entries which might be hard to imagine considering I run over 10 blogs (currently). My husband actually came up with this idea. I have a private OCD blog just for myself, that I’ve had since before I decided to go to therapy in 06′ but I hardly update it since it’s just somewhere for me and most of the time I dont feel the need to update myself on small little changes … Continue reading
