If you are always obsessing over the thought of being unwell will you never really truly be able to live your life? Life is strange because we want to live a long happy one without complications. It seems like to me ocd is a complication. I know I have to accept that life is always going to throw me off course and I won’t know all the time if I’m sick or not. I try to live in the moment as hard as it sounds because I can appreciate the compulsion of checking is just so hard. I try to think of it like this; the more I check myself if I am ill the more I’m making myself ill. I wish it wasn’t so hard.
