Reading your post...... Really hit home for me. I also get obsessive about things. Sometimes good things. Other times not so good things. I also make excuses to myself, basically lie to myself. Something I'm working very hard on. I'm so glad I've found DB, not only to keep me accountable but also for showing me there is a better way..... I'm not alone.... & there are many many ppl dealing with the same things I am. Thanks for sharing. I've found so much inspiration here. We can & will do this ....together ;))).
