OCD Representation in Fargo: Odis

November 25, 2020 ~ endingmagicalthinking ~ 2 Comments

I’ve been watching and enjoying Fargo Season 4 (even if arguably it’s not the best season) and after a few episodes I realized that one of the main characters had OCD.

In between the migraines, anxiety, therapy, etc. I come back to reading. 📚Every damn time. What else can you do when you can’t get out of bed? 🛏🥱

I just finished The Stationery Shop 📖by Marjan Kamali for book club 📚and I have mixed feelings, mainly about Mrs. Aslan, one of the mother characters. She has an undiagnosed mental illness that causes her to really resent her son’s desire to marry the protagonist. I won’t give any spoilers here.
Two of my favorite things in the world are lavender and early grey, which I frequently have as a tea but I found a recipe and baked them into a cookie! Here are my lavender and early grey cookies. Perfect with my tea and a book on a gray fall day ☕️🍪🌥📚
