The thought of you terrified me at first. Another reason for someone to never love me. It brought me to tears. But when I heard my diagnosis… I smiled. I was relieved. My thoughts. My obsessions. My compulsions. They now had a name. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. OCD for short. My thoughts no longer defined me. They weren’t a part of me anymore. I knew what to call them. They had a name. And maybe since I knew their name, I could tell them to ******* leave.
