big rant ahead because i can't yell at my sister right now, trigger warnings: i talk about my feelings a lot

jesus fucking christ i have hit the jackpot on the most incredibly cringey, obnoxious and outright fucked up post of my sister, who honestly, i can't even believe is a real person sometimes. this is my sister, FORCEFEEDING her own fucking neuroticism on a little girl. this is her saying 'i don't want people to treat my child differently, but i will make them feel like a special snowflake who thinks they should get away with whatever they want in school because i have diagnosed her myself with a mental illness'




here's why this shit bothers me:

1. as one of two of the ONLY living "members of our family plagued by OCD" who has actually been fucking diagnosed, by a DOCTOR, BY SEVERAL DOCTORS, at different institutions across the state of maryland, years of therapy starting from the time i was eight, who is prescribed to take high levels of narcotics every day to keep myself stable, i am REALLY FUCKING ANNOYED that my sister feels the need to CONSTANTLY talk about ocd, her struggles with it, how her kids have it, how our whole family suffers from it, how it's so 'debilitating' to her, publically, on facebook. sure, i'm sharing my own struggles with you right now, and some of you don't know me at all! some of you have known me for years! some of you probably didn't know i had ocd, because i don't talk about it all the time, because i don't want sympathy for it, because i'm not michael j fox in that episode of scrubs or anything, not desperately trying to hide my moments of weakness or not trying to burden anyone, but because it's part of my life and i deal with it like other people with all kinds of ailments deal with it rather than constantly feel sorry for themselves and make every facebook post about it.

2. your kid is seven, please let her be a kid. i also like to be at the back of the line, you know why? cause i don't like being fucking rushed. maybe i wanna have some extra time to choose which mcvalue meal i am going to purchase. this is not always a sign of ocd or anxiety, sometimes you just have preferences. do not diagnose your child with something you have never even brought up to a doctor.

3. later on in the post she goes on to explain how her daughter 'seems unruly and disobedient but really it is her ocd' and she has decided to remove her from regular school and homeschool her. my cousin even asked 'have you spoken with a pediatrician about it' and she was just like 'no i'm just going to homeschool her' because she cannot face the possibility that.. MAYBE HER KID IS COMPLETELY NORMAL!!!! MAYBE SHE DOESN'T LISTEN IN SCHOOL BECAUSE SHE'S SEVEN!!! so basically what she is teaching her child, is that a. it's okay to not listen in school because mommy will save you and teach you at home instead b. you should get special treatment because "you have a disease" and c. that your weird quirks and personality traits you have that just make you you, must actually mean you are suffering from mental illness

everything about it is annoying me and i want to punch her in her stupid fucking head.

Oh god. I feel for you/your niece.

I also displayed OCD symptoms as a child, enough to be diagnosed with it.

The absolute worst thing in the world is when anyone calls attention to it. Especially one's mother.

But yeah that doesn't really sound like OCD at all. I just liked being at the back of the line too. It never felt compulsive.

yes, all of this. and it might seem harsh but i feel really lucky that my mom was like 'whatever deal w/ it i will continue paying for your therapy but you're not getting special treatment' and taught me that i control my ocd, it doesn't control me. if my niece does in fact have ocd, my sister is doing nothing for her but causing her to be more neurotic and feel like there is something so wrong with her she cannot function in normal society.

Have you considered confronting your sister about this?

Who knows, maybe something nice might happen. You could be somebody's hero.

The rest of the posts you've shared make it seem like she's just trying to be cute, but she might be doing actual damage here.

Me and my friend that is pretty close to my family discussed it last night and today my mother and I are going to discuss some sort of intervention, because you're absolutely right. Most of her posts just make her look like an idiot, and that's fine, but don't be an idiot who leaves a lasting impression on your kid's psyche

[Bamyasi]

Well I hope everything works out okay.

Heck, even just a gentle reminder that treating someone like a psychiatric case/use of psychiatric labels outside of the institution of psychiatry has never ever helped anyone ever in the history of forever could do wonders.

Good luck.

holy shit! damn, wow!

[Bamyasi]

Is there something you'd like to say, michaell?

one time my sister was trying to humblebrag that someone said she reminded them of morticia addams and i was like 'i don't see it, people have told me that before though too and i don't see it either so idk' and she got super defensive cause i guess i was 'trying to steal her thing' and then yesterday on facebook i posted a picture (and i promise this is only mildly a shameless selfie plug) and someone said 'morticia addams' and she goes 'Really???....' and starts posting pics of herself, on my picture. She is definitely stable.
