Today, my science class found out that I have OCD and that one of my rituals is to cough when others cough. This is going to be a long year. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a nasty cough, but I went to college anyway. When I walked into class, I could practically smell menstrual blood in the air. After a few coughs, our instructor gave me an "Oh, shut up!" After half an hour, she kicked me out for not "taking the class seriously". FML
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
Today, my OCD manager sprayed my hands with chemicals because I'd touched the bin while throwing away a piece of paper. My hands are now covered in itchy, unattractive rashes. FML
Today, I was officially diagnosed with OCD. My mother's reaction? "That's not possible, she's a fucking slob." FML
Today, my halitosis was so bad that when I blew onto my solution in chemistry class, it reacted. FML
Today, I discovered that I have developed a latex allergy. I'm a third year medical student. FML
Today, my boyfriend found out I have OCD. When I touch something with one hand I have to touch it with the other or I freak. After I brushed his face with the back of my hand he tackled me to the floor, held me down, and laughed at me while I panicked and tried to touch him with my other hand. FML
Today, while in class, I desperately had to fart. Someone in the room had a coughing fit, so I took that as the chance to let it out. When I was about to release, the coughing stopped. I couldn't stop in time. 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 found out at a routine check-up that I may have asthma. How it went unnoticed until now, I do not know. I guess the world just needed to come up with a new way to make me miserable. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You know whoever posted this is going to read these comments and self consciously have to cough. Lol
Isoldael 27
I think that was the point ;). Poor OP :(
boofgall 16
It's weird, but in a strange way I admire the difference, even if its OCD. I'd find that interesting.. but also amusing!
KiwiExchange 16
Luckily, the year is almost over(:

41: The school year.
Meettitan 14
56- Do you know the months in the year?... .
emilyjgraham 34
61, she's correct, it's nearly the end of year. just not the academic year which OP was on about :)
CremeEggs 6
It's almost over at this section of the world, which is why 41's comment does indeed make sense. Assuming kiwi's have the same school year system as Aussies (assuming 41 is kiwi due to their screen name)
SaintPeasy 3
Who cares? The world ends on the 21st anyway. I'm sure the apocalypse will make OP's OCD seem insignificant.
Sandman366 6
Assuming that it's an apocalypse and the Mayans didn't just get bored of writing the future.

73- On my phone is says OP is from New York, and as far as I know most schools in the US don't end until May or June.
Jiplo 18
Just imagine if two people of OP's OCD "type" ended up coughing.

*Cough*

Almost, 2. Almost...

I'm sorry

I am too...people cannot ever understand when you have OCD and they think it's funny to tease. I go nuts when people smack their gum during class. You're not alone OP.
CharresBarkrey 16
24 - That sounds more like a pet peeve than OCD.
Ozuru 11
It's not alright #3, we both know what you did.
Nbrandwine 7
42 - It's actually called misophonia. Take it from someone who has it. Severely.
Trai 6
*cough* Ahhhhhh! Dammit all..
woainishamu 21
Take some cough drops!
boofgall 16
Halls don't solve OCD.

And op coughs after other people do.
red_headforlife 15
OP does not have a cough... It is an OCD problem that they have, as it states right above in the FML.

Harpy20 24
Sounds rough...
Pleonasm 36
This story was enough to make me come, thanks zingline89.
zingline89 18
Well shit Pleonasm, now I have to cum too. Thanks for making me cum to a guy, asshole.
Harpy20 24
12-foot-traffic a little "off" lately, Pleonasm?
Pleonasm 36
Hey I'm not your girlfriend! Or did she come because I came causing you to come? All this talk of coming has me goinggggg!
Harpy20 24
13- wait...Pleonasm is your lady friend??? I'm so confused...
Harpy20 24
**** is just...EVERYWHERE.
Pleonasm 36
What is 12-foot-traffic? 0.o
Harpy20 24
I was referring to you on comment 12. Sorry. And I was rhetorically asking if "business" has been slow in the sack lol
zingline89 18
17 - Yes. Who did you think it was in his profile pic with him? I'm not actually a clock, you know. Surprising as that may be to some.
Pleonasm 36
How can I be YOUR lady friend, zingline, if YOU'RE the girl in my photo, unless you're the guy, which is me, which would make this while situation even weirder... O.O
gracehi 33
You are now entering... The Twilight Zone.
Stalkerloo 11
I just read this whole thread, and now my head is full of f*ck! Pleonasm is somebody's girl, but he's actually a girl and she's a guy, and their phones are covered in ****. ...just....what?
Harpy20 24
Just don't push cough medicine during cold season. You'll look like a druggie.

Can you try and beat your OCD? Then you can show all those assholes who's boss!
Grimmerie 31
"Can you try and beat your paraplegia? That'll show those doctors who's boss!" You can't just wish away a disability.

It's a lot harder to get over OCD than people think (though it certainly doesn't help that so many documentaries portray it as something that can be gotten over with sheer willpower and a bit of doctor's coercion). I have trichotillomania (the obsessive compulsion to pull and twist my hair until it breaks) and it's something I personally HATE doing. I'm scared that one day I'm going to have bald patches from all the hair-pulling. Yet I can't stop doing it. If I'm bored or doing nothing with my hands, I find myself pulling at my hair. And I don't even realize I'm doing it until someone points it out or I pull my hair so hard it hurts. It's a hard habit to break. Especially when your brain is telling yo you HAVE to do it. It's like this little voice is in your head saying, "Do it! Do it! You'll feel better once you've done it!"...except you never DO feel better. Because your brain is constantly telling you to do it all over again.

My mom had OCD in her teens and early twenties (my grandma and aunt do as well) but she somehow stopped before it got too bad. So it is possible, though just like with any mental disorder (I have anxiety, school phobia, and a bit of OCD) it's not an easy thing to do, and not everyone can do it (whether on their own or with the help of a doctor). I wish you luck though OP, I can't even imagine how terrible it must be.
Bekll 31
Same for me. OCD in my teens and early 20s. I'm now 25 and my OCD rituals (mostly involving walking and clocks) have reduced dramatically. I think they were mostly due to stress. Recently taking control of my weight and happiness has helped me.
missamberrose 17
I have OCD where I have to push the cross walk button 3 times before I can cross it. If I don't I psychically can't make myself cross the street. It's definitely not something that I can just "get over" despite what people try to tell me.
katt_is_here 24
I'm not sure what you would call it, but if someone has mismatched shoes or socks, it makes me physically ill and I can't look at them without getting really freaked out. I have to take my shoes and socks off really fast because I cannot stand for my feet to be different.
pbonham 22
59- ah, paraplegia might be just a TINY bit different to OCD, next time you want to comeback at someone, make sure it's actually in category of relevance for it to make sense!
eddeeezzyy 19
At least it's not farting when people fart, or sneezing when people sneeze, or laughing when people laugh, or jumping when people jump, or burping when people burp...or! All of the above! :O
