Acronyms (and other things)

Born of the thought that ‘just because I like to be organized it doesn’t mean I have OCD’. And then of course the nagging counter-thought ‘or do I?’.
Thanks to Admiral Bob for the backing track.
I like to keep a schedule
that doesn’t mean I’ve OCD
but I do take some meds you’ll
most likely one day see
They seem to hand them out like candy
to everyone my age
Which I’m not so sure is dandy
Can they prove it on the page?
I really don’t trust anyone
who tells me what to do
That doesn’t make me paranoid
I just want proof it’s true
And no I don’t have SAD
I’m just a little shy
Well, OK I should cop to that one
I’m a pretty introverted guy
And though my default mode may be sad
I rarely let it win
thanks to cognitive awareness
I can help form the state I’m in
It’s rarely jubilation
there’s too much my eyes can’t miss
but in the muddle of it all
I am grateful for this:
I don’t have ADD or ADHD,BPD
or PDD or MDD or AD, CCD
CAPD or TMJ would make unhappy me
with IED I might explode – intermittently
Though sometimes I wonder if my worries are whims
or should I seek a specialist
as I run down the acronyms
on this frikkin wiki list
