Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Just some random girl from south west Ohio...

I'm an adjunct professor in Fine Arts and I have also taught high school fine arts for a number of years. Bachelor's degree in comparitive religion with an emphasis on Asian religious traditions. Master's in art education. Debating on entering an educational studies PhD program sometime in the near future.

Happily married for 7 years, no kids. Both parents are deceased and I have a brother and sister. I LOVE spending time with my neices and nephews- they renew my spirit.

I've been treated for depression and anxiety on and off since I was a child.

Plagued by the sense that I don't know what normal is anymore, that there is a pointless to existence that most other people don't seem to realize, that life is just a random chemical reaction so what is the point? I guess you could say I have lost my place in the world somewhere along the line.

Animals especially toy dogs, creeks, fossils, good food, my comfy bed

Being a passenger in a car, being away from home, sickness, not living in the moment

Not a big fan of music in general

Love to read! I use the Shelfari website to keep track of books I have read. My site is: http://www.shelfari.com/laurametz i'd love to discuss books with someone.
