Anyways just want to say for those living with it: You’re not alone. Your intrusive thoughts aren’t representative of you.
The examples above are just grains of sand on a beach of how OCD presents, and I hope more and more people have ease in recognizing the disorder
October is OCD awareness month! 🎉
Want to chime in with how the most common thing I hear from my peers diagnosed with it is “I didn’t know that counted as OCD” and didn’t get care until wayyy later than necessary.
I wish I knew more about OCD fifteen years ago. It would have definitely helped get my life back during that time knowing that the disorder isn’t ye olde “I’m an organization freakkkk” lol. Glad people are chatting more about it now.
