Autumn 2001 This site is officially done with- it will be entirely closed down soon. I have just finished up on my all brand-new site: Out of her Mind. It's mostly personal, with a large dose of OCD thrown in. I don't really know where it's going yet, but I suppose we'll see.

Love always,
Lydia/"Lucky"

|Summer 2000 Welcome to my new teen OCD site! The name of the site is "Thought Hiccups", as suggested by Lisa. I thought that it really fit ~ when you have OCD you get those uncomfortable feelings that refuse to go away, and they sneak up on you unexpectedly sometimes. They can be pretty tricky to get rid of too! I love the quote at the top, I saw it somewhere and had to write it down! I think it reminds me of how I feel sometimes, when my OCD gets really bad. If anyone knows where it is from or who said it, please e-mail me! Also, please look around, bookmark my site, e-mail me, and check back often! I will be adding more and more stuff, especially over the summer when I have a lot more free time!|

|Autumn 2000 So here I am again! I'm reading a great new book, "Kissing Doorknobs" by Terry Spencer Hesser. It is a great book about OCD. I really recommend reading it if you haven't already.|

|March 31 Hi! I fixed the lyrics page format and added a couple more songs that I can relate to about my OCD. If anyone has any suggestions of their own, let me know.|

Love always,
Lucky

Here's a piece of writing I wrote:

Don't tell me that I've never experienced the feeling of anxiety. I've swallowed full doses of anxiety like you wouldn't believe. Anxiety has attacked me many times, so powerful, so painful, I could barely stand it. Anxiety is my life, my enemy.

To deal with the almost constant flood of anxiety that threatens to wash me away, I have developed quirks, rituals, to make the anxiety go away for at least a little while.

I've had so many rituals in these past three years, too many to count. I don't even remember all of them, all the rituals my mind has created to fight off the anxiety and panic that overwhelms me, that threatens to overcome me.
