"I'm still a very obsessive person by nature. As a matter of fact, after posting this story, I came back and edited it approximately 28 times. I always put this huge amount of pressure on myself to be perfect at all cost, I probably need to cut myself some slack and accept things for what they are. "
I've written about this exact thing.
Not only do I obsessively edit all my posts, I torture myself by re-reading them, picking out the words, sentences and details that could improve it. Trying to gain perfection is a way to torture my mind, all fucking day long. Im probably mildly insane.
I don't do Meds anymore though.....
I totally get you, it's kind of scary how similar we are.
