On some days when my ocd is going to be bad, I’ll wake up with some words or a song repeating in my head
I’m not actively thinking them, they just repeat by themselves. Anyway, good morning and [i]severe plaque psoriasis [/i]

My son is the same he has ocd and also a compulsion to repeat the words at the end of sentences or certain random phrases. For some reason the phrases often have a country in them. Two of the phrases are Iranian potato and Vietnamese porn, amusing until taking him shopping means getting weird looks from Vietnamese people and the more anxious he gets, the harder it is for him to control. Luckily he can see the funny side, has a good group of friends and doesn't mind when people laugh at the things he says.

@Patientlywaiting oh yeah, like palilaia? Or however you spell it. I have some tics but they usually happen when I’m calm after being stressed, like at the end of the day, instead of when I’m in stressful situations. I’m glad he and his friends find humor in it.
