How do you let go of obsessive behavior?

Lots of therapy. Or lots of liquor.

oh ya know normal stuff like turning the lights on and off ten times before you leave getting to work and turning around to go back home and check it the oven is on because the last time you used it was two days ago or....HBO made a show about it i think

That's a tough one... I am like that when it comes to things being in their place (or clean) Everything in my world has it's place and if it is out of place, I will correct it. So what I do sometimes is make a mess and then leave it. Even if it is just a few crumbs on the table . I can hear the crumbs calling out "wipe me up " but I will leave them to prove to myself I am not *ucking crazy.

How do you let go of obsessive behavior? start by bringing a beer, then if you are unsure if you brought it correctly bring another. i'll let you know when you are done

Hmmm i dont suppose you would like to bring some of that obsessive behavour to my house, as I am obsessively unorganised, living in a constant state of chaos. hmmm happy chaos but definately chaos.
