Circular Logic you can use

My neighbor Herrmann has OCD so bad he's been practically unable to leave his house for 6 months. We have been trying to get his handwashing and skin care under control. Anyhow, he just called. He read my treatment page and is now obsessing on mouth care instead. Ha. I love that.

He told me he feels much better already and I could hear it in his voice.

It's kind of nice to have someone to be comfortably weird with, but our goal is for both of us to be better and be able to meet for tea and a conversation- without twitching and losing track of the discussion- sometime before this summer ends...
