So what exactly is
OCD?
Or should I say
CDO
Because that's in alphabetical order

Okay actually
That right there -
That's called being nitpicky
And having pet peeves
Which is fine I guess
And you know what
Whatever
You be you and all that

But my problem
My problem is actually called
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Not being "nitpicky over stupid things"
Because I'm sorry but
Freaking out because someone left a smudge on the chalkboard
Is usually not actually "Obsessive Compulsive"

No hate or anything
Because that bugs me too
And I love things alphabetized
And one time I spent two hours sorting Nerds -

Okay that
That right there -
Not the sorting part

I finished it

in my mind, i'm screamingWhere stories live. Discover now
