Quotes:

April Dowling, a 30-year-old car dealership finance manager from Higley, Ariz., said she doesn’t think the “Big Brother” experience will be any more difficult than the time she had to spend 15 days in a “tent city” jail for drunk-driving charges. She also believes living in the house may remedy some of her obsessive-compulsive behaviors.

“I have seen a therapist,” said Dowling. “They tried to put me on anti-anxiety medication, but I’m not big on prescription medication. I just don’t like to take it. I’m actually hoping the ‘Big Brother’ experience will be therapeutic. My life will not end if the green beans aren’t behind the corn in the pantry.”(AP Article)
