OCD

Should we make mental health jokes? Should we make dark humor, jokes about depression?

Probably not. Let’s do it anyway. I merely wondered because I have made these ecards for people with obsessive compulsive disorder, you see and — well obviously the last thing anyone should do is laugh at one’s own mental health issues. It’s much healthier to have no sense of humor at all. Actually, I was thinking about this the other day when a switch flipped on in my head - fourteen times, off and on, just to be sure - and there it was: why hadn’t I created funny ocd cards yet? Of course, at first I wasn’t sure this was a good idea. Why risk offending a group of people who are really well organized? Still, at least when I receive complaints, they’d have no spelling errors.

Finally it struck me: people with OCD aren’t gonna mess with me. They don’t cause messes at all. Though they might come over and tidy up a bit, in a sort of passive aggressive way. But as logn as my dishes are done, who am I to object?

Note: there are seven spelling errors in the above paragraph. Can you find them all?
