“Our Numbered Days” Written by Neil Hilborn – A Review

Are you obsessed with something? Do you keep thinking the same thing over and over again? Do you get yourself distressed while trying to get rid of your obsessions? Well, yes, then, you are suffering from OCD.

According to the International OCD Foundation, “Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health disorder that affects people of all ages and walks of life and occurs when a person gets caught in a cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images or urges that trigger intensely distressing feelings. Compulsions are behaviors an individual engages in to attempt to get rid of the obsessions and/or decrease his or her distress.”

What exactly are you supposed to do if you fall prey to OCD? Should get obsessed and distressed with every minute details that you think of over and over again? Should you run away from the world and lock yourself up to remain in the shadow of your helplessness? Or should you dare to lead a normal life and dare to fall in love?

“OCD” written by the contemporary poet, Neil Hilborn, illustrates such a scenario in which a man, who has fallen prey to OCD, gets obsessed with the only beautiful obsession he has gone through till date – he gets obsessed with the girl he has fallen in love with. What the man goes through being in love is a totally different image than what we can probably either imagine or feel. The lingering emotions and the heart-wrenching ending leaves every reader crying. Thus, this is one of the most watched videos that has been loved by the people all over the world and has made Neil Hilborn’s debut, “Our Numbered Days”, a grand success.
