OCD

I'm usually organized and like the order. It gives me a sense of peace. However.... my damn OCD makes it so hard to achieve my duties. Like the more I avoid the more mess and anxiety.... but it's hard to take on the tasks and finish them.

I have OCD although it's not usually too bad. It definitely takes a backseat to my depression and anxiety. In a glass-is-half-full kind of way, I try to appreciate my OCD. For instance, the bathrooms in my house are exceptionally clean as I tend to go over everything four or five times rather than just once. I'm being a bit silly, of course, as I know this can incapacitate people. I do hope you can get the help that you need.
