Today, I was formally diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive tendencies. My mom saw this as an excuse to make me clean the whole house top to bottom, because "Hey, you love to clean." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was officially diagnosed with OCD. My mother's reaction? "That's not possible, she's a fucking slob." FML
Today, my mom's obsession with cleanliness hit a new low when she bitched at me for having trash in my trash can. FML
Today, my obsessive-compulsive mother barred me from using the toilet she had just cleaned. She told me to wait until tomorrow. FML
Today, my mom told me to clean the house up because she wants to make good impression on the cleaning lady. FML
Today, it was confirmed that I have ADHD and moderate OCD. My mom thinks I do it on purpose to seek attention. I'm shy, and I don't even like people. FML
Today, I asked my mother if we could test me for OCD, since so many people have suggested to me that I might have it. She smiles at me and says, "No, honey, you're just really really weird." FML
Today, I had my first day off in six months. My mother immediately came down to my room and demanded that I clean the entire house. As I was cleaning, she said, "You don’t get to relax. Ever. Lazy ass." FML
Today, I decided to clean the whole house as a surprise for my mother. When she came home, she screamed at me and called me a bitch because she had wanted to clean it herself. FML
Today, I was called gross by my mother for not cleaning my bathroom. I normally clean it every day, but today it looked clean, and I really needed a break. FML
Today, my mum told me I should see a therapist when she saw me wipe down a remote before using it. My dad has a knack for blowing his nose into his hand and wiping it on his pants, and my mum is the kind to pick up food residue from the drain and eat it - but sure, I'M the one with bad habits. FML

Oh but of course you love to clean! Just like how people with severe depression just LOVE to feel hopeless and dejected every minute of their lives...

OCD doesn't always mean cleanliness, it just means order to your preference. Explain that to her next time.

My mom said she would make me do that if I had OCD

Well at least you can see if you do enjoy it. Maybe she is just testing the market?

With that logic, tell her that you also tend to get angry at people for their insensitivity. That will probably covince her you also have anger management problems, and leave you be.

I have OCD, and I can tell you that I don't like cleaning.

29: ah the good ol days where parents were able to discipline their children without having to worry about CPS stealing them. It's easy to learn respect for others and that actions have consequences when spanking was not only allowed but encouraged. And for everyone who is cries abuse over a few swats: discipline and abuse are two totally different things. I advocate one,not the other.

That's phucked up OP; she doesn't realize this would be long and exhausting for you; I've seen enough documentaries on OCD to say, you still wouldn't want to do it.

Clearly your mom wasn't there for the explanation of what OCD is.

Ugh... I have OCD and I hate when people do this. My mom was the same way. But mine is more of an obsession over thoughts. People watch too much Monk lol.
