I never thought I would be dealing with obsessive compulsive disorder at this stage in my life. It’s scary and overwhelming to see the early signs of OCD creeping in, but I refuse to let it define me. I’ve started seeking help and talking to professionals about managing my symptoms. It’s a tough road ahead, but I’m determined to find healthy coping mechanisms and live a fulfilling life. I know I’m not alone in this struggle, and I want to encourage others to reach out for support. Together, we can conquer OCD and live our best lives.
