P.S. Thank goodness I found this flow-chart, how else would I know if I was a horse or not?

Am I a Horse?
I have an annoying fixation with things methodically taking place. Everything that we do has a process - even the simplest of things. For example - brushing your teeth. If some of those steps are not done in the order needed to make your pearly whites sparkle- you could really get yourself in a mess. That might sound silly, but it's true. And my desire to have all things completed in a timely, efficient, and systematic way really puts a damper on life. Sometimes it can be a valuable trait to have; at other times it is my greatest enemy. Sometimes at work, I get very anxious and uncomfortable when things seem "out of sync" to me. Now and again, I will speak up - but most of time it is so unnerving that I just sit there and turn into a recluse. It's not just work, any decision-making task sends me into a frenzy. It often leaves me in a place of discontentment. A place with no resolve. I get too hung up on the proper steps and I lose my way. This might sound totally bizarre to you. Once, I tried explaining this to a close family member who noticed my behavior and was pretty much scoffed at. "Just do what you have to do and stop thinking about it - what's so hard about it, RhiANNon". I wish it was that easy. I don't want my every move and decision to be based off of a flow-chart, I want to "go with flow" like everyone else. Everyone has their issues - I am just learning how to deal and cope with mine.
