OCD: The Voice in her head.
Prompt: Write a story about a character who is struggling with a mental illness. (Fiction)
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6..." Maggie counted to herself as she flipped the light switch over and over again. She had just encountered a terrifying thought that something awful would happen to her beloved pets. So she counted up to one hundred times in order to. "Protect her pets." She counted to one hundred then decided to count to a higher number to be extra safe. Her family didn't understand what caused her to do these things. She'd count each time she flipped the light switch.
