Conversations with my OCD

Shampoos

I lather my hair with the shampoo, singing whatever song is playing at the time.

The suds start to get closer to my eyes and on instinct i shut them.

It's quiet for about five seconds before they come.

someone's in here with you.

The opening line.

"No there's not, i locked the door"

Yes there is, did you check before you went in the shower?

" Of course i did, i always do. There's no one there"

I know you can feel the hairs on your neck raising from someone else's presence.

"There's no one else in the bathroom, i checked every corner before i got in the shower"

Open your eyes.

"Don't make me do this, please don't make me do this"

Open your eyes.

"There's shampoo on my face" i beg

OPEN YOUR EYES.

I open my eyes and the shampoo that was running down my face immediately gets into my eyes and now I'm hissing, trying desperately to turn the tap on to wash my eyes out.

What was the point of opening my eyes if when i did i wouldn't see anything anyway?
