I am not making fun of people with
OCD, just to let you know! I am constantly organizing,
alphabetising, and labeling the desks in my area of the E.R. Dr.
Nowysz noticed this and started interviewing me for my mental health history. I then
proceeded to tell him that I have mapped out the hospital so that no matter where I go - I am going in a counter-clockwise circle. I also have Des
Moines mapped out for the purpose of driving in the same manner. I
cannot drive from my mother's house by Mason City to my father's house in Center Point, because that would be clockwise from Des
Moines. I
must go to my father's first. That is just one of my

Nowysz has
unofficially diagnosed me with
OCD. The nurses laugh at me every day. I laugh at
myself every day. I realize that there is no reason for some of my anal tendencies, (
Most have very
definite reasons.) and I do see the humor in it all. That doesn't, however, stop me from doing any of it.
OCD's OK with me! I just call it organized.
