I'm nearly certain that it isn't a genuine physical condition. But not only is it a creepy idea, but for some reason, the specific mindset behind it disturbs me in a unique way.

I don't have any obsessive compulsive behaviors, but in the right frame of mind, I can imagine the sort of feelings/impulse that might underpin OCD. There's something about Morgellons where I imagine that I could also explore such a state of mind, but fuck no, I don't even want to look down that street.
