Ostracized from across society just to suffer from a little anxiety. Please help me I said quietly through
Sobriety a lot of my audience and a lot of people watching this will be diagnosed and suffer from OCD
And in this video I am NOT talking to you
Directly I am talking to society as a whole
obsessive compulsive
disorder also called OCD is when a person has
uncontrollable
reoccurring thoughts known as obsessions and
Behaviors known as compulsions that a person feels the urge to repeat over and over and over again
But there is a major major problem
with society
Many people in society today for some strange reason
Claim they have OCD. Oh my god. I'm so OCD. Oh my god. I don't like my room messy
I have OCD. Oh my god. I have to put everything straight
I don't like things that are wonky or an angle. Everything has to be straight. Oh my god. I have OCD
Oh my god. I'm so OCD
I worry that I have left the oven on or I haven't turned a light off in the house
I'm worried that I've left my car keys in the car and somebody is gonna steal my car now because of it
Oh my god, I have OCD. Oh my god. I'm so OCD
I don't like specific foods if I have cheese on my pasta I have to eat around
The cheese to have my pasta I have OCD. Oh my god. I have to brush my teeth
Every night before bed because if I don't I go crazy. Oh my god. I have OCD. I like to have everything clean
Clean, you can't have no dirt. I like things clean. Oh my god
Guess what?
Guess what? I have OCD. Oh my god. I have to wash my hands before I eat my dinner
Breakfast or lunch. Guess what? I have OCD
If you say these things
You do not wait to start again. Let's start again. I'll repeat this
if
You say these things you do not
Do not
Have Oh C D. Do not not you
Do you do not do you wash your hands until they hurt or until they physically bleed?
Having to count in your head to a hundred three times over before you think and feel like they are clean
Do you text your mom over ten times a day just to make sure she is okay
Have you spent a lot of money on clothes or objects only to suddenly feel that they are
Unclean and you throw them out. Do you have unpleasant thoughts?
do you constantly have doubts about having done something that interferes with your
Daily life and how you live your life. Do you?
Constantly fear about saying something or doing something inappropriate in public
these are things that people who legitimately
suffer from OCD
Have to deal with on a daily basis and in their daily lives and it's not something they can
Control or choose to do
OCD is scary and OCD is crippling
OCD is not something that should be trendy or should be glorified
Do not claim you have OCD if you like things clean
99% of the population
Likes things clean. Nobody likes things that are dirty. So does that mean?
99% of the world has OCD
No, it doesn't do not claim
OCD if you think you have left the light on in your house when you go out the majority of
people think that and worry if they've left something on in their house that does not mean you have OCD
Do not claim you have OCD if you have to brush your teeth every night before bed
99.9% of the population
Brushes their teeth every night before they go to bed
Does that mean 99.9% of the population is diagnosed and suffers from OCD?
No, it doesn't it's what people do they brush their teeth before they go to bed
They do not have OCD for some reason now, it has become a trend
Everybody is saying I have OCD. Oh my god. I have OCD because I like things clean. Oh my god
I have OCD because of this because of that because of this which in
Reality, it has nothing to do with OCD
This is offensive to people who actually suffer from obsessive-compulsive
Disorder it is offensive to them. I know I hear from you guys and girls in the comments section down below
