Q. Why do you think you have OCD?A. Cause I think about worrying about it all the time. No, not really. Mainly the ruminative worry and anal compulsive 'it's gotta be just right' that sap alot of my time and energy. When I'm teaching, my lesson plans have to be reworked forever, when I'm in a hypomanic episode my cleaning every damn dust bunny and criticizing my husband if he plays a computer game gets ridiculous. It's not consistent, but I'm finding that I'm ruminating on awful things about to happen much more than I used to and it's becoming disruptive. I just don't know how much is for real (the world is going to hell in a hand basket, after all) or how much is my brain running amok. So I'm looking for experiences to check it against (and check and check and check...).
