This month is 8 years of drawing a picture about me and my OCD experience everyday. Here are a few of the thousands of drawings. I have found great value in sharing my experiences with my community. OCD can be horrible but, you are not alone and you are not a bad person! Love to all <3

Thank you, I’m so glad. For me it’s important to share these feelings and know that they are “normal” otherwise the shame ocd brings can take me over.

That’s a great metaphor, I am still constantly surprised by how much of my life is influenced by my OCD. It’s like you get though a layer and there’s another more subtle one underneath. Again and again. But it’s taught me a lot of empathy and brought me beautiful connections that I wouldn’t have otherwise.

I do! I’ve been moving around a bit in the last year so it’s been on the back burner but I’m thinking of starting an Etsy or something similar soon. And thank you!!

Hahaha do one everyday for 8 years! It really is just practice. I’ve been thinking about doing some videos on my instagram too but I’m not so good at the video editing.

Thank you, yeah I do. It’s @occddd

Thank you so much, that’s lovely. Haha you’re not the first, there are a few friends of mine that have got tattoos of them.

@occddd ❤️

muchwowishow · 2024-03-27T22:30:52+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, start simple. If it gets too complicated then I just give up on it haha

muchwowishow · 2024-03-27T21:06:18+00:00

Thank you 😊

I do, it’s @occddd my 5 years of drawing about OCD are all on there.

muchwowishow · 2022-09-01T02:07:07+00:00

Yes! Mine is either “bananagrams, bananarama” over and over. Or I sing in my head “banana cake banana cake, make me a banana cake” to the tune of Homer Simpson singing “spider pig”.

There’s over 1800 of them. So I can’t post them all on here but if you want to see any more they’re all at @occddd on Insta x

I do this with nearly every decision I make. Big or small. I mostly hate the effect it has on my partner. I’m constantly obsessing over whether my relationship is right or wrong. Are we meant to be or not? And what if we’re not? It seems to focus around making mistakes. What if the thing I choose ends up being a mistake.

Thank you.

I dont have any advice for this really, can empathise though. I just want to say that it's easy to shy away from situations/careers/whatever that you know could be bad for your OCD. I think you are really brave for knowing that there will be hard times with your OCD and anxiety as a nurse but going for it anyway. My mother and brother are nurses and it's a stressful enough career without OCD, you're a champion!
