"vape" is currently 3.5% nicotine, and gradually weaning. Was 5.9% 2 years ago
and homework for next appointment is finding some way to give that context for her. She said she is happy to google direct mg to cig conversion, but wants my interpretation

Think that would be easier. Bonus points if I get a say in which orificeAlmost like you're being .......probed........
But she has better interview skills than most
Apparently he's probably heading to far north Queensland, which is the one place they breed
But sore tummy, while he adjusts to salt water
Pre-dawn crescent Moon this morning, with Venus, and two other planets that I didn't really notice, but the phone camera did!

Funny we both took pictures
I think that was about 3am
Saw a specialist on Tuesday
He told me that I have OCD
And I said "You haven't seen my shed"
And he said no. A common form of OCD is lots of thoughts of contamination, leading to the stereotype of hand washing exactly 7 times in blocks of 30 seconds. And sufferers believe that will stop the thoughts
I have violent thoughts, questioning thoughts and going over old memories infinitesimally in disturbing ways. And he said Grumpy old man letters are my compulsion
It makes more and more sense, the more that I read about it
He also said that he thinks that I am on the autistic spectrum. Which I neither bought into, nor gave much thought until a couple of days later
But meltdowns from being nagged are probably the bulk of the memories that the OCD makes me relive and question what a terrible person I am
So, the 2 have this unfortunate interplay between them
The answers to questions is great. After years of seeking. So that's good
Hope everyone is well
The OCD is providing difficult to explain to people. They keep commenting that emails aren't inherently bad. And some people deserve Grumpy old man letters. But I struggle to communicate the thoughts which I am attempting to neutralise. Really disturbing
I'm really not quite sure how to react to this so please don't get offended by anything that comes out of my clumsy mouth. Also, know that everything comes from a place of caring about my friend.
I'm happy you finally found someone who cared enough to actually diagnose your issues with a mind toward evaluating all your symptoms instead of giving a fly-by-night diagnosis and pushing you along. My greatest hope is this person has some ways for you to deal with these issues besides dumping a bunch of medication down your gob.
Since 2015, I have been with doctors and allied health who see meds as set and forget. Who obsess about routine and sleep and diet and golden ratio for carbs and exercise and joggingI'm really not quite sure how to react to this so please don't get offended by anything that comes out of my clumsy mouth. Also, know that everything comes from a place of caring about my friend.

I kept saying that something had changed. And they kept implying that I am fat and lazy
The hospital who I am doing the outpatients program through takes time to listen and explain. And accepts that allied health for lifestyle lectures is literally on every street corner here, and high rotation on the radio and media. And that I have been begging for more than that for years. And having doctors shut me down and tell me to take up swimming and sleep hygiene
Doff,
My daughter,
Now 20 is on spectrum, what they used to call Aspergers, OCD is one of the things she struggles with. She even used to do the tapping so many times, or shutting the door 4 times, etc. being diagnosed was a big relief to her. She was able to name the issue & now has help from us (her family) and counseling to be able to deal with things. She will finish Bible College next year & is going to intern at a church, helping kids with similar issues this summer.
One of the things she has a hard time with is knowing what not to say. If she has a thought, she feels like she has to say it. It is cute, but can be frustrating too. Some things Daddy just doesn’t want to know.
All this to say basically what Tammi said. Knowing what you are dealing with gives you a path to move forward and understand yourself better. Sometimes I think my daughter and her thinking is a move forward in evolution that the rest of us haven’t caught up with.

Also, there is a really good show on Netflix called Atypical that is about a teen with high functioning autism. The character is more extreme than my daughter, but my wife, my daughter, and I laughed a lot at some of the similarities in behavior.

first and foremost is the med tweaks, to stop my brain sounding like this. So i am capable of dealing with people
told a fairy recent talk therapist that she only sees men as an erection on legs. Is such a filthy ..... that she has syphilis and a .... oozing with puss for example
even the med tweak has to be gradual, so anything beyond that it way down the track until my brain quietens
