Just caught up on her ‘OCD’. ‘Live a day with my OCD and then we’ll talk’ … yet you attack anyone who has worse anxiety than you because you’re just saying ‘how you deal with it’ but no one is allowed to have milder OCD?
I’ve got ADHD, Anxiety, Emet, PTSD and OCD.. all kinda linked into one. Lots of people have intrusive thoughts, lots of people have little rituals. My brother for example, always fills and empties a cup of water 3 times before he goes to bed with said water.. he’s always done it because he’s said he’s always slept well when he’s done it so now he just does it out of habit.
Without sounding too judgy, some young girls will mould habits and copy those around them to fit in or they notice the attention around those who are unwell. It could be very well that Eden does have some mental illness, but it could also be during her formative years she’s done these habits and created these behaviours as a form of attention seeking, especially as a youngest child in a large family.
Notice how it was ‘I tell Lloyd to make me stay in bed because I want to go and touch elbows’… not ‘he has to hold me down screaming because I feel compelled to and have a panic attack without doing it. If her OCD was OCD she’d have had years of therapy and medication. Medication is ALWAYS a first defence with GP’s without diagnosing because GP’s can’t diagnose.. also OCD but she’s never acted on any of the ‘intrusive thoughts’ except the ‘quirky’ tapping her knees or touching her face? Yeah okay..
Another girl asked ‘oh is this normal then?’ and she’s said ‘absolutely’ …. Why are we labelling normal behaviours as OCD? I .. I’m actually so mad at her.
