tobeover Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 So, by now, you all probably know that I have OCD. I was fine last year in the school year. Once school ended, and summer began, however, the OCD peaked, and was at its worst. And the worst thing about it was I did not have a psychiatrist and a therapist this time around. (In the school year, I did.) So I began acting erratically. I posted angry comments on Facebook, I began pouring my heart out to anyone who'd listen. To be completely honest, I think I did this as much for sympathy as I did to relieve myself of my obsessive thoughts. So now, I learnt from this experience, because a whole lot of people kind of hate me now. I asked one girl why, and she said that it's because EVERYONE knows that I have OCD. Fair enough. Nowadays, I keep what I'm going through to myself, my family, my therapist and psychiatrist, ie just the people who need to know. I think I matured a lot from not having anyone professional to ask for help.
MidwestUSA Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 At least people know your reason for acting out. Just don't use OCD as your excuse, or crutch. If you run into someone you've offended, and the topic comes up, apologize. Otherwise, everyone has the whole summer to forget what you did. At your age, these things pass quickly, everyone has bigger and better things to tend to. Just be on your best behavior from here on out. Good luck. 1
