With a good helping of OCD.

It's all quite complimentary, however.

I can be depressed to the point where most people would be jumping off bridges, life is HELL and there is no good in the world, but the OCD is telling me I still have to do something and the autistic me allows retreat.

I've met homeless people like me and that may be my ultimate fate.
