Hi everyone, I’m an 18-year-old guy struggling with different types of compulsions due to my OCD. It’s been a tough journey, but I’ve learned to navigate through the challenges by seeking professional help and reaching out to supportive friends and family. Understanding that I’m not alone in this struggle has been a major source of comfort for me. I’ve also found solace in meditation and mindfulness practices, which have helped me manage my compulsions better. It’s definitely a daily battle, but I believe that with the right support and coping strategies, we can learn to live fulfilling lives despite our mental health challenges.
