OCD is a good mental illness to have.
Okay. Well, I'm not sure whether any mental illness
is good.
It's probably not anyone's position to talk
about a mental illness as being a good one to have.
When you see someone walking down the street
that suffers from a particular mental illness
you may not be able to see any particular
physical sign.
But it doesn't mean it's any less debilitating
or painful at times for that individual.
Including individuals that suffer from severe
OCD.
Mine was to keep everyone safe. I thought someone in my family would die.
So I was constantly checking, washing, cleaning, counting.
Doing all sorts of things to keep them safe.
And that would take up hours and hours of
time.
You know, be very careful of just judging something
like that.
Judging obsessive compulsive disorder.
