Hey
there
honey,
I
have
been
thinking
about
you.
I
have
had
OCD
for
most
of
my
life,
but
since
having
my
baby
my
obsessions
have
revolved
around
her.
I
have
started
to
obsess
that
I
could
be
capable
of
harming
her.
So
you
are
definately
not
alone
in
your
experience
with
this
brain
disorder.
I
really
feel
for
you,
but
trust
me
'this
too
shall
pass'.
I
have
talked
to
many
people
with
this
particular
obsession.
I
have
had
a
form
of
it
myself
in
regard
to
my
kids
and
hubby.
I
used
to
worry
about
contaminating
their
food,
drinks,
medicine
-
anything
that
they
would
ingest.
It
was
nightmarish.
I
had
Pure
O
at
one
point
at
the
same
time
and
worried
for
6
months
that
I
had
contaminated
milk
that
they
drank.
It
ran
through
my
head
nonstop
for
that
whole
time
and
I
thought
for
certain
I
would
go
crazy.
It
was
all
revolving
around
a
particular
disease
fear
that
I've
had
since
I
was
younger.
My
experience
is
that
OCD
seems
to
evolve
as
you
get
older.
I
have
had
different
forms
of
it
except
scrupulosity...I
doubt
I
will
ever
have
that.
Right
now
my
issues
are
with
collecting
and
hoarding.
My
house
is
full
of
stuff
everywhere
especially
unopened
boxes
of
things
I
have
bought.
-Hi!
This
is
a
huge
OCD
obsession...many,
many
people
have
this.
I
have
it.
If
people
truly
"acted"
on
this
fear...and
you
won't...the
prisons
would
be
full
of
people
that
OCD.
And
they
just
aren't.
It
happens
pretty
much
never.
I
know
it's
scary
and
painful,
but
hang
in
there.
Do
you
have
any
books
about
OCD?
If
not
get
one
and
start
some
reading.
Be
well.
