the comment i despise is when i tell someone “i am clinically diagnosed with ocd by a psychiatrist” they respond with “omg i’m sooooooo ocd i can’t stand when my clothes aren’t arranged by color” i have to tell people i’m “clinically diagnosed by a psychiatrist” because otherwise they don’t take it seriously then i get this comment it honestly hurts bitch i wish i could find the mental capacity to arrange my clothes by color but instead i lie around with thoughts racing through my head of what i should be doing but i can’t make myself do it i am such a perfectionist that i give up on everything because i would rather have a messy house than have a house that is half-ass cleaned if i can’t do it perfectly why try so no ocd is not an adjective used to describe your neatness preferences it’s a mental disorder i live with and battle with every day of my life if you want to join the club go see a psychiatrist   thanks for coming to my ted talk   none of this was aimed at op or anyone specifically just to people who make such comments
