I honestly think that "treating" OCD like it's some...bad thing (okay- it can be living hell sometimes the lies it can tell me) I look around at differnt OCD sites and it's like...me, I know I think entirely different then say someone without any mental problems. I'd rather just accept it for what it is- when my OCD is REAL bad, now that's when I'll be more then happy to yell at it, have Johnny lasso it away and tie it up and put it in jail! (Very good imagery for this cowgirl to refocus on :) )
Honestly, if I can manage to have it at a fairly good level where it's manageable- I can live fine with it without some evil Duck Soup Rufus T Firefly pychologist to go off telling me what to do (not to condemn anyone that does go to one)
OCD- with a creative mind like mine, honestly if I can't stop thinking of a scene I just wrote between Mark and Lucas in a Rifleman story, then it's obviously not something I'd want fixed. Why fix something that isn't broken? The trouble for us with OCD, is when we can't seem to get an irritating irrational thought out of our head, as much as we want it to leave BIG TIME.
The true struggle is when that happens, and the thoughts lie to you like some western outlaw; or acts like a spoiled brat teenager and if it doesn't get what it wants you get an explosion.
