You feel so silly because it comes natural to everyone else, yet you find it so hard. For me, sitting in maths class is the most relieving part of my day! <br /><br />I'm fifteen years old, though most people automatically assume I am older. I generally act a lot older than what I am and my social life generally consists of those older than me. <br /><br />I completely agree with that! Some of my OCD habits are so engraved in my lifestyle that I don't even realised I'm doing it. <br /><br />Magenta.Magentahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370647340607741831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5906114890274172238.post-71837609973263221292011-08-21T12:55:23.504-07:002011-08-21T12:55:23.504-07:00I hope the antidepressant works well for you and a...I hope the antidepressant works well for you and am glad you're sleeping betterAbigailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12051102407708751849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5906114890274172238.post-80160046863311809922011-08-21T09:16:22.386-07:002011-08-21T09:16:22.386-07:00Dear Magenta,

I don't get sarcasm a lot of the times and I am easily confused by social interactions. I remember when I was a teenager going out with a friend and her church youth group-- I was so anxious because I didn't know anyone and I was trying to fit in and it was so stressful. I went home that night and hysterically sobbed myself to sleep out of frustration.<br /><br />Starting medication was the best thing I ever did for myself. Although, it took me until last year when I was 32 to begin taking it :-) I have often wished I had known that I needed to take it as a teenager-- I feel like my social life would have been -- well, it just would have existed. <br /><br />I too am on an antidepressant -- I think that is all the doctors really prescribe for OCD because the anti-depressants help those thoughts move along.<br /><br />I know you are a teenager-- if you don't mind my asking, how old are you? I ask because you remind me a lot of me. <br /><br />I am still trying to only wash my hands once each time. I have always washed mine 3 times in a row. It has been such a challenge to only do it once and I don't always remember. My therapist has told me I've been doing it 3 times so long that it has become a real habit with me.<br /><br />Lady Delphinium-Elizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18279501398388972542noreply@blogger.com
