Symptoms

Do you ever feel like you have some symptoms? Well let me tell you what I think about it. Ever since I was a little kid I have been having this thing I don't know what but every time I do something on my right hand, my left hand has to do it too. Let's say I was just wiping off some dirt on my right hand, I would be mad and will always think that I should wipe my left hand too even though I did nothing on it. When I'm playing with my hand like what other children do (or probably not) I always want to make my hands move symmetrically like if the right hand goes up so does the left one. After years of NOT realizing what happened to me back then and what has always been happening to me, apparently it's called Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). According to Google (if you search it up "OCD meaning"), 

It is an excessive thoughts (obsessions) that lead to repetitive behaviours compulsions). Obsessive-compulsive disorder is characterized by unreasonable thoughts and fears (obsessions) that lead to compulsive behaviours.

 

OCD often centres on themes such as a fear of germs or the need to arrange objects in a specific manner. Symptoms usually begin gradually and vary throughout life. Treatment includes talk therapy, medication or both.

    D*mn. My world collapsed. I did not know that a person like me have been living with such mental disorder. I've never been into a psychiatrist or something related to that but in my case it's not that bad I guess because I've read stories and articles about how people would repeat washing their hands FIVE times after eating or closing their bedroom door SEVEN times before leaving or turning the lamp off NINE times before going out (actually I forgot the exact number of how many they repeat their activity but you get the point). In my environment like family friends siblings colleagues etcetc I never knew someone that has this kind of behaviour. Maybe there is but they just didn't know yet.

    So to each and every one of you who is reading this now, find something that has been bugging you. Anything really. That might just be some syndromes or any kind of scary sh*t ahaha but I hope you the best of luck. I hope that I can go to a psychiatrist so that they can determine what is this behaviour that has been with me since I was born. We got this. I believe in you. Stay strong.

Adios!

Parting Apart

I want to say I'm sorry, but I can't. Maybe I'm a hopeless romantic guy. I really love her, so much. With all my heart. Every night, it's a battleground in my head. Whether to forgive myself and just move on, or there are other layers that I have not yet discovered. I really want her to come back. Maybe it's true, love does not have to have . I want her to shine. She's a diamond of her own league. She's cute. She's my smile. She's everything for me. Now I'm getting emotional ahaha.      My sense of romance isn't getting any better as the day goes by. Practice ? That's probably the word. I need to do it. It's just, I couldn't understand her. I mean, I do have a sister. I should understand her a little bit; woman's world. Maybe much. But, like people say, everyone is unique. She's special.      I hope that she's smiling everyday; I know she's a tough one. She's an independent woman. Knowing that everything's...

untitled #1

I once was blind blind to everything who cares to me it was when I met a girl, she amazed me. One day I screwed up the situation we had. By we I mean me and her. I couldn't help my feelings to her but, there is something that was struggling, right inside my head. I know that I couldn't let her go at that time, so I decided to take some activities that might be useful for me to forget about her. But every time I'm alone, my fkn brain just keep popping up her image, back when I used to stalk her, or anything else that is related to her. I believe love can do big things but, some people say that you couldn't stay with your lover forever. And some other people say that you just need to keep her on your mind, deep inside your tiny little mind. -Tangerang, 13062016.

Idealism

For the last few weeks I've been struggling to come back to reality. I have been a bad person, not like I did commit crimes or anything, just that I was too naive about the world.      Sometimes it's good to have plans of your own and not thinking all the consequences. Being an idealist is hard but doable (if you have the courage and are willing to wait for god knows how long until it happens). Sometimes you just gotta throw all your dreams and aspirations. It just won't happen. In the times like this we have to move in a fast pace, while there are some that choose not to, ignoring process if I must say.       There's a famous word from my country that says, Idealisme adalah kemewahan terakhir yang hanya dimiliki oleh pemuda. Idealism is the last luxury that only youth have. -Tan Malaka      Well then I guess I'm starting to get into the boring adult life we all wanted when we were young which we regret instantly after we get it LOL.
