I HATE having Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
I feel like less of a person.
For me to not be able to HANDLE the normal stresses of life.
I called my counselor, for the MILLIONTH time (I feel so bad calling her on Emergency call...I've done it so many times since I had this overdosage of medicine...but I HAD to!) and she calmed me down. I should NOT have watched "Girl, Interrupted." My counselor scolded me, saying that my brain's not ready for that kind of movie. I told her I thought I was supposed to be fine after two weeks, but she told me it would get BETTER in two weeks (which two weeks has already passed), but that I may not be where I need to be for months. =\ :'(
I don't WANT Jared to have to DEAL with a PSYCHO GIRLFRIEND!!!
I don't LIKE myself right now. At all at all.
I don't WANT to have this!!! http://www.ocfoundation.org/ocf1010a.htm

Date: 2004-02-09 01:54 pm (UTC)we say things sometimes, things that we don't mean.
I have the feeling that my understanding of who I am as a christian did not finally get to a mature point until last year. it's more than just acknowledging God, it's about changing your whole life in alliance with what He wants for you.
Go, and sin no more. that doesn't mean that we're not going to sin, because all fall short of the glory of God, but that doesn't mean that we should purposely sin.
i really feel like you've got to make a decision when you're in the right mind, I am pretty sure God understands that I've done things that no Christian should have ever done.
That's why he came to save us. He *wants* to love us. He wants to be our Father, He *wants* to take care of us.
So don't come to that conclusion too soon baby doll.
the Lord knows your heart, remember that.
and once it's washed in the blood of the lamb, you're good to go ;)
