I'm wondering if anyone else analyzes the way that they feel, their mood, ect. I do it all the time. Seeing if I'm too happy and energetic, if that's the case, I obsess that I have bipolar. Or if I'm in a down mood, worry that it's depression. I try to figure out what's "normal". Watch my husband and anyone else I'm around to see how close I resemble them to see if I'm "normal" like them. I don't have extreme mood swings or real depression. I have every day mood swings like I think everyone else has. But I can't stop worrying about those things. I have always struggled with violent obsessions, but my meds have helped considerably with those. Now I just obsess what's normal, and what's not. About being crazy, or what makes those people you hear about go crazy. Anyway, just wondering if anyone else can relate????

Ha! Know exactly what you mean! Here's the irony of my situation: if I don't obsess a lot one day, I'll think, "Maybe you don't have OCD...maybe you're just faking to get attention, pity, and special treatment...maybe you're just exaggerating the symptoms, and making yourself think you have it..." The ironic thing is that only a true obsessive-compulsive would obsess over whether or not they are really obssessive-compulsive! ;)
