Click on the title for the announcement of a new "reality" series about people with OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder).
As one of approximately 7 million Americans who really have OCD, I will withhold judgment on this project until its fruition.
I will say this: If you think some viral videos and the TV series "Monk" reveal the "real world" of OCD to the depths which we who experience it daily know all too well about, think again.

This is HILARIOUS----and NOT insulting!
Caught the end of a new "Monk" commercial on USA the other night. They have taken the early 90s rap song "Down with O.P.P" and turned it on its ear.
Are you down with O.C.D??
I can guarantee you there will be some people with O.C.D., some medical professionals, and some plain ol' fussbudgets out there who will get "insulted" by this "Monk-Mocking" of the disorder.
OCD has been a part of my life for, well, most of it. The real onset was at age 12, but I can remember things before that which, had people understood the disorder in the 1970's, would have signaled the "train coming down the track" as it were.
I LOVE the song. Click the above link at get down with OCD!!!!
