Dealing with OCPD treatment at 18 has been challenging, but I’ve found so much support and positivity within myself and from those around me. Finding the right therapist and treatment plan has been crucial, and although it’s not always easy, I’ve seen so much progress. Surrounding myself with understanding and compassionate people has made all the difference. It’s important to remember that healing is not linear, and it’s okay to have setbacks. Self-care and patience have been key in this journey. I want to encourage anyone else struggling with OCPD to seek the help they deserve and to be gentle with themselves. You are not alone, and you are capable of healing.
