I read this @BBCNews article a while ago OCD with the title "I spent 20 years preparing for the coronavirus pandemic". I thought long and hard about commenting, but I think the narrative (title) could be unhelpful and misleading to those with OCD. 1/4 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/stories-52564434#
2/4 In my opinion the title 'I spent 20 years preparing for the coronavirus pandemic' is problematic, but I accept it's the authors view and opinion. But technically, I don't the person did (but I understand the viewpoint). Here' the difference (important OCD part)...
3/4 People with OCD have been doing unnecessary rituals and behaviours to prevent perceived 'possible' dangers from potentially happening then or later. Fuelled by OCD over-inflated sense of responsibility and risk perception in many cases.
4/4. The coronavirus pandemic is where people are carrying out recommended rituals and behaviours to reduce the risk of a clear and present danger. i.e. The behaviour is in response to the real 'right now' risk.
I should have spell checked all that before pressing tweet.. but it's been yet another long day/week/month/2020.
