Modern medicine has been very helpful.

There have been times in my past when the OCD has kept me alive.

After all, if I'm dead, how am I gonna do the things I NEED to do???

Do keep your appointments and if those don't work make it an obsession to find something that does work.

Somewhere in my past, I'm not sure when, I decided it was better to be sleeping on the streets than dead.

I've seen my very worst and it's not so bad because I still live.
