Confessions on Yik Yak | It’s been a bad month with my OCD. I have the choice of freezing right now (old apartment, bad heating) or plugging in my space heater before bedtime. I convinced myself that even if I set an alarm, I’d sleep through it, and my whole apartment would burn.

My personal favorites are timers I trust that turn off the device. I had a heater that had a reliable timer and would turn off anywhere from 1-8 hours after run time. Itd also turn off if it was knocked over.

You’re right, I’m due for a new one anyways. This one is probably older than me and it doesn’t have that feature. Thanks!
