((((TexasChic))) It's a difficult decision whether to share your OCD with your boss. I'm extremely fortunate in that mine has 2 out of 4 kids with ADD, so she understands medications, the ups and downs and problems people with MI face. I've been lucky. I have had my confidence bite me in the @ss before, though. Like I all of a sudden sprouted a new head and no one knows what to say about it. It's that stigma that most of the general public attaches to us, due to ignorance. And some people just don't wanna know what's going on in our heads, no matter what!
I would also have to decide whether I thought the boss had been fair in the past to me, as that would be a good indicator as to how she'd take to the announcement about OCD.
