🚨 BILLY BOB THORNTON SAYS HIS EXTREME OCD CONTROLS HIS EVERY THOUGHT — WHAT HE ADMITS NEXT HAS PEOPLE SHOCKED
On Howie Mandel Does Stuff, actor Billy Bob Thornton just described what he says OCD actually feels like… and it’s nothing like people think.
Not being “organized.”
Not liking things a certain way.
He says it’s mentally and emotionally exhausting... something that takes real brain power and energy all day long.
• “It takes real brain power and energy to do this all day”
• Says intrusive thoughts don’t leave until he completes them
• Describes constant “rituals” his mind forces him to finish
• Says even mid-conversation, he has to go back and complete thoughts
And when that happens?
He says it doesn’t feel optional.
It feels like something in his head controlling what he does in real time.
Howie adds that he's even missed flights… just because something touched his clothes and he had to go home and change.
Billy describes patterns, angles, even movements he has to complete… or the thought won’t stop.
Then he admits something that caught people off guard:
He once became fixated on something about a stranger in a grocery store… and says the thought wouldn’t go away until he acted on it.
So he did, then played it off like nothing happened.
He says that’s what people don’t get.
It’s not a preference.
It’s not a personality quirk.
It’s something that can take over your thoughts and control your actions at the same time.
He says most people using the term “OCD” have no idea what it actually looks like.
Be honest, is “OCD” being overused… or are people underestimating how serious it actually is?

@SkinnyTuna Life is less horrifying on drugs the same way a burning building is less hot if you're unconscious.
You can delay the confrontation. You cannot avoid it
