I tend to have this problem too, Rachel       08/07/05 07:04 PM Edit Reply Quote Augie Reged: 10/27/04 Posts: 5807 Loc: Illinois I have OCD as well and, yes, I am often late for work because I have to go back and actually feel the outlet to make sure things are turned off! I have become very obsessed with the diet "rules" and fear any food that people post they have a problem with. The inconsistencies also drive me crazy. For example, I find it nerve wracking when some people say bananas are their safe food while others say bananas give them severe cramps and pain. I need yes and no, black and white rules! This increases my stress incredibly. I think I probably spend too much time on the boards as well. And sometimes it interfers with my job, or I make mistakes at work as I try and finish fast so I can jump on the boards. Not good when something is interferring with other things in your life. I think the obsessive personalities we have can be detrimental in combination with the board! Often I think that my obsession makes my stomach worse. And, unfortunately, I'm pretty sure it has. Yet, I still keep trying to find the answer by logging on... I am addicted and urgently still trying to find the answer to what I am missing in my search to feel better. I don't know if that is wise or stupid! Is the board helping me or hurting me? I don't honestly know. What I do know for sure is I have met some awesome people who will be part of my life forever. -------------------- ~ Beth Constipation, pain prodominent,cramps, spasms and bloat!
