Thank you, Hooligan. I pretty much agree with what you said. I live with my boyfriend, and I do agree that he doesn't have to do everything according to my needs, but like you, we've worked out what works for us. My problem, unfortunately, is that the OCD doesn't stay the same, so it's hard to say that what works now will work later.
But what I was basically getting at is, shouldn't a person with OCD given the same level of accommodations, as each individual needs (since OCD affects everyone differently), under the same law? I agree with you about blanket statements, but the ADA does so when saying "reasonable accommodations," at least for now.
