Oh sh*t, did I fill in the wrong bubble??? Irrational worriers check in here.....

I was stressed and felt rushed....I'm sure I looked at the Obama bubble but what if I accidentally filled in the Romney bubble??

I'm so obsessed with NOT voting for Akin, maybe I accidentally voted for him because of name association???

Need some serious election day emotional support here. Tell me that it's all going to be ok.

Our county board candidates didn't have party affiliation on the ballot. for those of you who have not yet voted - pick up the democratic ballots on your way in. There should be someone giving them out outside the polling place.

People with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder come in 2 varieties: Checkers & cleaners. (With, admittedly, some overlap.)

Checkers are always worried that they left the stove/bath water/lights on, forgot to lock their car, etc.

Cleaners--well, they're always cleaning things like door knobs, telephone receivers, etc.


Both can be relatively effectively treated by cognitive-behavioral methods, and certain medications can also reduce the symptoms (e.g. Anafranil).
