Forgot to mention that he’s a paranoid schizophrenic.

Which because of that he has ocd about using the bathroom in the way that he uses it every 10 minutes ( literally I’m not even exaggerating), and won’t touch the toilet to want to flush ( this I understand but that gross for everyone else). 

So I understand what it’s like to do things the way you do them and not have control over that. But his mental illness conflicts with mine and causes me anxiety =/


OCD and Schizophrenia

I found this interesting:

“Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and schizophrenia have a good amount of things in common. “Although OCD and schizophrenia are distinct diagnostic entities, there is considerable overlap between the two disorders in terms of clinical characteristics, brain areas that are affected and pharmacotherapy” 

” Among patients with chronic OCD, the odds of schizotypy are substantially increased with early age of OCD onset, male gender, counting compulsions and a history of a specific phobia.”
