It&#39;s just One Of Those Things. I&#39;d say votes don&#39;t matter, since they don&#39;t, but Lord knows I&#39;ll be back to check on this at some point. If nothing else, maybe folks with similar experiences will have info, hopes, and thoughts to add.</span>

Theres a certain type of magical, ritualistic thinking that comes with the (near-)psychosis of withdrawal. The kind that comes on you like a compulsion, or like your gag reflex being triggered, and makes you feel like your skin no longer fits.</span>

The comic is a prime example of that. There are aspects of OCD, sure, but its beyond just the obsessions and the compulsions, its the way that that is expressed in ritual and dire need, the fact that one cannot bear the consequences of NOT performing the ritual. Theres nothing wrong with ritual or magical thinking, nor even birds, incantations, grids, or food. The problem lies in when those are forced on you by your hindbrain until youre sick.</span>
