Researchers have discovered a neural connection that may explain the relationship between Tourette syndrome and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The study uses a mouse model to explore the brain circuitry associated with the involuntary movements seen in the syndrome.

My brain...
...Is complicated.
So I have finally pieced the whole thing together and I am essentially the person they point to for #neuroscience curiosity.
I have:
#epilepsy (probably, temporal seizures, working diagnosis).
#tourettes #adhd #autism #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #cptsd and #synesthesia.Oh and brain damage.
If someone wants to pay me to run a bunch of tests...

#obsessivecompulsivedisorder manifests in some strange ways.
Such as in how you eat.
Many people like some sort of bread with their pasta.
Meanwhile my brain is like "but you already have a giant pile of carbs, why are you adding a different form of carbs? Get like, some protein or veggies or something,".
Also if my fork isn't the right size it bothers me.
I'd rather eat with my hands than an incorrectly sized fork.

I have another question -
How come when some men cook, they get more seasoning on the entire stove than the #food they are trying to season, then don't notice nor clean it up, and cause someone with #obsessivecompulsivedisorder to clean the kitchen for an hour before they can make coffee as they f**cked the entire thing up?
I live with children and they're older than me.

If we went with "Intrusive Thots" this would've been our team logo.
This joke *has* to have been done before, right?

It snuck up on me this year, but the Oakland OCD Walk is tomorrow! I had a lot of fun coming up with names this year, but went with "Wyatt ERPs Dusty Riders" because bad puns are the best puns.

#obsessivecompulsivedisorder is a pain in the ass.
While it does have some benefits like having an over developed sense of responsibility, being super organized despite horrible #adhd and always smelling good since I obsess over hygiene, it causes problems.
I can't go out to eat anymore since dirty tables drive me nuts, and I want to start hosting when the host would rather use their phone than do their job of greeting people.
I can't date someone messy/disorganized.

Sometimes I roleplay real #life like a #videogame or #rpg in my head.
"Hmmm... I'm a bit unmotivated,".
Energy drink: +2 endurance & stamina for 5 hours, after effects -20 action points for rest of the day. Potentially addictive
Trait: #obsessivecompulsivedisorder - Extra carry capacity from organization, -3 focus if not enough pockets to organize during travel.
Solution - Tie jacket around waist.
*Pocketed applied to item black jeans +15 carry capacity, OCD satisfied*

I just discovered I have a new condition:
Here I thought everyone saw that way, like TV static across everything but RGB.
So far we are up to:
#tourettes #adhd #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #cptsd #asthma #insomnia facial neuralgia, peripheral neuralgia, #synesthesia, just being plain eccentric, and now visual snow syndrome.
Whatever made my soul must have hit the randomizer.

#obsessivecompulsivedisorder mixed with severe #adhd manifests in some strange ways.
I am VERY particular about eating utensils.
They have to feel proportional, and designed for what I am eating otherwise I would rather just use my hands.
Like trying to eat ice cream with a gigantic spoon when I like smaller bites, and would much prefer a smaller spoon.
Or trying to eat absolutely anything with a spork which was designed by the devil himself.

#obsessivecompulsivedisorder is the gift that keeps on giving, isn't it?
I started posting the videos on #scoopz as an experiment, and a hobby to put my thoughts somewhere as a creative #vlog.
Now I feel the need to post at least 2 rants a day, out of fear of losing my channel momentum, and the intrusive thoughts creep in if I attempt a break.
It's still fun, but this content creator shit is stressful now that I am about 100 followers from making ad revenue.

It only took one of the longest years to figure out support systems in #losangeles but I finally found a place I feel safe.
It was a living nightmare. It almost doesn't seem real.
I feel like I just got home from a warzone and silence scares me, and racing memories of everything awful that occurred replay constantly as my #ptsd worsened as a result.
#tourettes #obsessivecompulsivedisorder and severe #adhd are well coped.
Fear or panic is what kills me and drains my soul.

The current regime is so obsessed with pseudoscience and other nonsense, and it’s going to harm so many people. If you suffer from #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder, or a child or family member who does, please be aware that the MAHA lunatics are trying to limit SSRIs and other medications that are invaluable in treating the disorder.

Who the hell needs #college anyway?
I mean it's useful.
I suck at sitting, classes are awful. I have a whole #nuerology #disorder that makes sitting down/still difficult often.
Unless I have someone to cuddle with. Cuddles are THE BEST. I'll take them all!
Anyway, it also comes with #obsessivecompulsivedisorder with hyper focus, and all I do is read all day for fun.
Also #adhd.
The #internet exists.
#info GALORE.

A nice bonus is that I now handle the uncertainty of life outside of OCD much better, which has been very useful these last few days.

In 2025, I’m excited to do whatever I want, unburdened by OCD, because OCD doesn’t rule my life after specialized therapy.
Before ERP, I lived my life in a box. I would avoid lots of movies, books, video games, songs, news topics, anything that could potentially trigger intrusive thoughts. I would spend hours doing mental compulsions to avoid the discomfort of my brain. I would always need reassurance, and I would always doubt myself (and others).
After ERP therapy, I no longer fear getting out of my comfort zone. Now I specifically look for ways to get *out* of my comfort zone. OCD doesn’t dictate my life.

Anyway, not kidding about the OCD bit. That became very debilitating as a kid for a while.
Such a huge burden to have to carry at that age, to know that the entire nature of reality depends on you holding certain things together.
But it also makes you despairingly stoical. Hellhounds appear & it’s like, Oh you too, OK, sure, why the fuck not.

I’m excited to say that I am participating in the One Million Steps for OCD Walk on July 13 at Lake Merritt! I’ve had #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder for my entire adult life, and I’m really looking forward to meeting the other amazing folks in the Bay Area #OCD community in person for the first time!
It’s also completely free to register and/or just show up to walk, but any and all donations to the IOCDF are appreciated.
