It took ‘em a while, but according to various sources, and of course RockStar, GTA IV will have a november release. Took ‘em long enough. I’ve been waiting for this since it’s been out for different players.
I day or so ago I was listening to some music and all of a sudden I hear this cat 'talking' close to my window so I popped open the screen and looked outside, there was this gorgeous white cat sitting in front of the window, as soon as it spotted me, it started rolling on the floor, playfully patting at me and even talking some more. By the time I got my camera though, it had already walked across the street.
Today would have been my mother's birthday, this is a tribute to her. Her favorite spot on the couch with one of her favorite things to do... reading a magazine while watching television
Imagine yourself having to count all the stair steps, every single day, every single time you go up or down the stairs, imagine having to repeat a stentence or word 3 times in your head when thinking about things when you are laying down in bed, then imagine yourself having to add up the numbers that you see until you have a single digit number left (5+5+9=19=1+9=10=1+0=1).
These are just a few ways that the ‘performing tasks’ part of OCD manifests in me. Isn’t that tiring? Absolutely it is; nearly a 100% of the day this goes on in my head.
The causes vary from Psychological (unconscious conflicts which manifested as symptoms; for instance, avoiding feelings) or Biological (majority of researchers believe that there is some type of abnormality with the neurotransmitter serotonin, among other possible psychological or biological abnormalities; however, it is possible that this activity is the brain’s response to OCD, and not its cause)
I have a lot of different ‘performing tasks’; they may vary to the slightest thing (keeping the phone at a certain spot) to the biggest thing (doing everything in a certain order).
All these things manifest because consciously and subconsciously I am trying to keep my feelings, and thoughts away, and then trying to distract myself from doing the actual tasks.
I am tiring myself now.
If anyone wants to know more about this, and what it means for me (and want to know more about how this manifests in me) then leave me a comment and I’ll type up a little more.
I will also be typing some other things up that are part of my diagnosis.
This was the view from my window literally seconds before rain started pouring down.
Terribly sorry for the lack of updates, I know I promised a photo a day, but I got extremely busy with therapy.
My American Cat, she was my baby when I visited friends in the US
