I'm scared to take off a bracelet encase something bad happens.

I got a plastic bracelet well over a year ago before a job interview from my Mom and ended up getting the job. I started to see the rubber band as good luck and wear it everyday feeling like it keeps me safe like some form of protection.

I feel like it also helps me from choking to death so I fear taking it off encase that happens. I know it sounds stupid but I feel like I will actually take it off, after really thinking about my thoughts, and end up choking to death .

Anyone else have any 'safe' or 'obsessive' items?

I've also been reading that successful people wear the same thing over and over so should I keep wearing it to be successful?

    Hi, you do what ever makes you feel good, never mind what other people do you have to live your life as you think is best for you.  Have you ever thought of putting a small crystal in your pocket, just a thought.

    Peace to you

    I get that. I don't have a favorite item, but I get hung up on things that I believe are bad or good luck. If I  happened to look at the clock at 11:11, I felt safe and lucky. If I found a dead bird, I thought something really bad would happen and I would spend the day being nervous and anxious.

    There's no harm in keeping the bracelet on, so keep it!
