OCD affects over 100 million people worldwide each year.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric anxiety disorder most commonly characterized by a subject's obsessive, distressing, intrusive thoughts and related compulsions (tasks or "rituals") which attempt to neutralize the obsessions. Symptoms may include some, all, or perhaps none of the following: * Repeated hand washing (used to do that obsessively) * Repeated clearing of the throat, although nothing may need to be cleared. * Specific counting systems — e.g., counting in groups of four, arranging objects in groups of three, grouping objects in odd/even numbered groups, etc. (used to do that too) * Perfectly aligning objects at complete, absolute right angles, or aligning objects perfectly parallel * A need for both sides of the body to feel even. A person with OCD might walk down a sidewalk and step on a crack with the ball of their left foot, then feel the need to step on another crack with the ball of their right foot. If one hand gets wet, the sufferer may feel very uncomfortable if the other is not. If the sufferer is walking and bumps into something, he/she may hit the object or person back to feel a sense of evenness (i was always doing that but i wouldn't know if i could call it ocd so lets not). These symptoms are also experienced in a reversed manner. * Twisting the head on a toy around, then twisting it all the way back exactly in the opposite direction. - wikipedia my my, it's been a while sorry guys, had to reformat my computer (it's a shitbox you see) and lost photos, photoshop, etc anyway quite a few people asked for this one so here you go  any more suggestions are very welcome, plenty more images to come Part One - Rape [link] Part Two - Teen Pregnancy [link] Part Three - Suicide [link] Part Four - Domestic Violence [link] Part Five - Dieting [link] Part Six - Self Harm [link] Part Seven - Parenting [link] Part Eight - Child Molestation [link] Part Nine - Child Molestation [link] Part Ten - Poverty [link] Part Eleven - Honour Killings [link] Part Twelve - Media [link] Part Thirteen - Smoking [link] Part Fourteen - Smoking [link] Part Fifteen - Diabetes [link] Part Sixteen - Homicide [link] Part Seventeen - Water [link] Part Nineteen - Abortion [link] |

para pa pa pam I'm lovin' it

lets make a sharp turn/to avoid this road of heartburn/those that are smart learn/ to carefully count the amount they art earns/barefoot we walk on a dirt trail full of broken glass/ i'm prepared to say imma be alright secretly hoping you'll ask/
(and what actually makes the piece more effective, not at all an insult) ... is that the writing is all on a slant...which, as someone with severe OCD, is itching and something to totally driving me crazy.
but to me that's just more proof of the extreme effect on one's life OCD has--to become so antsy and upset over something so small in life is just proof how overwhelming and life-altering the disorder is
