Hey everyone can graduate, but the thing is I struggled, not many friends of mine know, but I suffered and struggled a lot. 4 1/2 years to finish my undergrad and grad program altogether, whole time living on campus. That's where my problem was, I had severe anxiety, overthink to many things because people at school can be disgusting. Things just got to my head and I would have a hand wash routine that had to be done if I left the comfort of my room. My 8-10 washes then I'm sane. This is my first post and my proudest, I am happy to be done with that hell, hey work is going to be hard but it's better than me suffering in a apartment slowly destroying my mentality. I hated having friends over because I felt if they touched something in my dorm, they were "infected" so I never had my at home friends over. I barely talked to people in fear of them touching me with dirty outside hands. Hey I felt bad but it would devastate me if I had. Showers to go home took a hour for full cleansing, followed by another one at home. Once again to who ever reads this, please know, I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW, I'm finally out of the misery I suffered for so long

Long story short
Op suffers from OCD and anxiety, makes it through 4 1/2 years of school for his graduate degree.

Congrats! School is rough. I recently graduated too, with my under grad though. Never want to go back.
