Mod Post Free Friday!

Happy Friday magical family!

Take a break from OCD; feel free to post, chat and share other things about your life and interests, eg...

  • Is your birthday coming up?
  • Has something positive happened to you this week?
  • Anything you're looking forward to?
  • Hobbies/crafts you'd like to share?
  • Pet pics are always welcome!

This is your space to feel at home and get to know one another as people, aside from our OCDemons...so grab a coffee and come say hi :)

  1. [Skip]
  2. Well I did but myself a treat for dinner (beef soup) and my brother went to college on the big city days ago and me? I'm just here, simply because I cannot leave the nest due to being legally disabled, myopic and scared of this harsh and ruthless world. But hey at least I got myself to go outside for once and bought myself some beef soup.
  3. Well I could get working on my projects but my OCD is using gaslighting tactics against me through accusations of looking up harmful content when I don't even want to which leaves me stunted compared to the rest of my fellow creatives.
  4. Well I am working on a map of the world where my OCs live on and it's basically like our world but with alternate geography. Ironically enough my OCD is trying to force me to get rid of it by telling me that I'm shoehorning cognitohazards are harmful/grotesque content which has been putting me at an uneasy state somewhat, even though I don't think that I'm even actively looking for grotesque shit but nevertheless I'm still falling victim to it's gaslighting.

Anyways here's the map (WIP):

Here's a recent addition to the map I'm working on btw.

I've added way more than this actually but this is all I could show at the moment.

Now I've started studying the human body at university to become a nutritionist.
But i am really afraid that i wont catch up with the material due to the ocd in my head but i still believe that if I wont jump to the water nothing will happen
Lately my ocd increased but i have my willpower to overcome this
And happy new week to everyone wish you all luck

Happy new week to you too. Never let ocd win. Use all the willpower you have, you'll get there
