Jesus Christ. You didn't need to tell me that but I applaud you for it. Anyone who can be as open about an experience like that deserves a pat on the back in my book. That actually reminds me of my own struggles with OCD (though not nearly as severe) but mine was going in exactly the opposite direction. By that I mean I was washing my hands to the point where I was damaging my skin and leaving myself susceptible to getting sick. I've been on meds for about 3 years now but I feel I can manage without them for certain periods of time. I once went two weeks not taking them without falling back into my old OCD vices but because of my other conditions, I eventually have to take them full time again. That's progress. I've never told anyone that before.

Really goes to show it's a small world we live in. For all you know, the stranger sitting next to you at the bus stop could be more like you than you expect.
