Hello people. Today I have felt more obsessive and compulsive than normal. I have mentioned OCD to pdoc, but we won't be able to talk about it until September .

Anyways, today I had to write an exam for school, and I checked it over at least 5 times. But before starting my exam, I had to line up everything straight and make sure my pages were spaced evenly (no ruler luckily or else I would have spent 30 min just doing that). I thought people might be judging me for doing this, but I couldn't control it (social anxiety here).

Also, I am helping my mom with her store opening and I couldn't control the fact that I had to make everything straight and organized and spaced evenly so it looked perfect. I am anxious and excited for that, but I am afraid that working at my mom's store may make my anxiety worse (the OCD part of it anyways). I know people will be moving stuff around all the time, but I have the urge to make it even, straight. But then I hope I don't get one of my brief contamination episodes because then I won't want to touch a lot of things because of germs. I hate when I have those episodes .

Just wondering about advice for coping with it for the next two months. I am on medication for GAD and SAD (social anxiety) so. I am waiting for pdoc, but that will be closer to 2 months time and I can only see this getting worse. Thank you.
