Let's talk about Snot baby

So I learnt something new while at the Children's Museum today. I was actually wondering about this topic a couple of days ago when I had the flu. Click on the image to understand what the hell I am on about.



Fascinating =O

So the yellow snot are heroic white blood cells that died in battle. Am never gonna look at my yellow snot in the same way again xD

What do you do when your own mind is your prison?

I read this amazing article written by a muslim writer in Canada that really brings through the torments of a person suffereing from OCD.

The link to the article ---> http://adbusters.org/the_magazine/75/Whispers.html

What does one do when the prison is their own mind? Questioning every little thing that they do, always making them go through a double take, or even tripleor quadruple take, in order to convince the thoughts that everything is all right.

OCD stand for obsessive-compulsive disorder and it's a psychiatric anxiety disorder. You're mind basically keeps telling you to obsess over something trivial until you start going through an abnormal ritual in order to kill the thoughts, as seen from the above article.

The main reason why I am intrested in this disorder is I know someone who has it. Always on edge, always ready to explode at you if you put one thing out of order in the bedroom. Everything is meticulously in order in the bedroom, from the way the bed covers are placed on the bed to the position of the carpet on the floor. Taking ages just to do the simple task of washing the hands because the areas between the fingers need to be scrubbed three times clean since that's where all the dirt collects. It scares the hell out of me.
