I have a serious problem..


I have OCADAPPTSD I'm not sure if I should seek medical attention or say "Fuck it" and let it ride.

Don't bother Googling it, I am sure it s not a recognized disorder yet. What is it you may ask?

Obsessive-Compulsive Attention Deficit Addictive Personality Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Mouthful huh? Maybe that is why it is not recognized,; no one wants to say it.

I have an addictive personality. Once I am hooked on whatever new thing I find, I think about it day and night. I must play it, sell on it, blog on it or post on it.
If there is something to be figured out.. I will spend DAYS trying to solve whatever the problem.

In some cases I have auditory hallucinations. Case in point:
My whole family has become Call of Duty: World at War addicts. It is now THE first thing I do when I get up in the morning. That first thing used to be Ebaying, then posting on Mylot, then blogging oh be right back my turn to play the game ...

Ok back damn they were killing us!

Do you see what I mean? I can't even get through a blog post without stopping to kill people.

I digress

The auditory hallucinations? In the game, there is an option for artillary. It plays a siren as it happens. At work yesterday, that's ALL could hear. Sad really.
Also, when I close my eyes, I see scenes from the game. At night, I get startled awake because someone just shot me, stabbed me, grenaded me or ran past me (Now you understand the PTS part)


This is why I am SO very glad:
1. That I am broke
B. There are no drugs readily available
III. That everyone loves me


What do you all think? Should I seek medical help?

OH New Poll in right sidebar! Go vote! If you have not already moved on to another addiction

I relate, I RELATE!!!!! so REGULATE MOTHER F*CKERS< REGULATE!!! Do what you feel!!!! Can I borrow some money?

Shawn said...

I can definitely relate. I do exactly the same thing with whatever obsession I have at the time. Blogging, online poker, pinball, etc. It becomes all I do or think about until the next big obsession comes along.

dizz said...

ummmmmmmmm yeaaaaah about that...

dizz said...

Are you my long lost brother? If so.. can I share in any inheritance you may have?

quirkyloon said...

Can one become addicted to going to the bathroom? Cuz that's my latest addiction.

Heh heh

otin said...

I have an OCD streak myself, some things I am very nutty about! Timing is a big one with me, I hate when things break from my schedule!

AD said...

To make it short and sweet, folks, I've created a monster.

As long as you don't start doing it with your family, you should be OK. Or if you quit your blog, then you know you need help!

Lola said...

Maybe it's time to put your hands up and step away from the video game? Get outside, go for a walk or a bike ride. Oh hell! What am I saying? Get to the video game store and get yourself a new game to discover. Get some variety in your gaming. Lol!

Stopping by for the June 1000 Comment Challenge.

Oh, great.....I'm psychosomatic. Just what I need, another disorder.

dizz said...

Yep.. I have that problem too... it's hell getting old

dizz said...

Chaos doesn't bother me too much. We never plan anything, that way, nothing gets screwed up!

dizz said...

Yes... yes you have

dizz said...

OH yes.. because if you can't have fun in life, whats the point in being alive?

dizz said...

I if quit my blog, that means either my family performed an intervention, or I'm dead. In either case, please look for me

dizz said...

LOL!! Thanks for stopping by my blog. My daughter got my hubby a new Call of Duty game for Fathers Day.. so yep there's the variety

dizz said...

dizz said...

LMAO! I'll make a club, we can all be nuts together

I find that it helps to play Guitar Hero whenever I am overwhelmed by the urge to kill people, even pretend people.

Blognut said...

And? I have no idea why I just showed up as a guest up there, but that was totally me.

Mr Condescending said...

I think its totally healthy!

Wtf else should you do, watch tv? Even if its video games, at least its interactive. Its called passion, something most people don't have.

dizz said...

lmao shelly.. that IS you right?

dizz said...

LOL! Your brain is still on vacation that's all. GH helps immensley too!

dizz said...

OH! I like your take.. sounds soooooooo much better than addiction! Thanks I feel better already.. How much do I owe you? Dr. C

Billy Donald said...

Yeah, addictive personalities are great when it comes to video games and low-grade Alabama crack, but when you start flirting with faberge' eggs and chapstick for cats, that's when you bottom out...take precaution, my friend and be well!
