Abseil the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth · 12 August 2017

OCD Action's vision is of a society where Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is better understood and diagnosed quickly, where appropriate treatment options are open and accessible, where support and information are readily available and where nobody feels ashamed to ask for help.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

To those of you who know me you will know OCD has been an uninvited guest in my family for far too long now.

OCD is a debilitating illness that wrecks lives it is not a funny quirk involving neatness and colour coordinating it is a thought that becomes so embedded in your brain your belief in this thought becomes so powerful you will do anything to make it feel "right" even if the compulsion required to make it "right" takes hours out of your day you will repeat again and again until it satisfies your thought, then the doubt will appear did you do it "right" and the process will repeat & repeat & repeat and if all the compulsions are completed correctly it means you will not go blind or your family will be safe or you did not harm another human being.

Are you exhausted yet reading this!! 😔

I volunteer as an awareness champion for OCD action and they are a wonderful charity supporting not only people with OCD but also carers and family members.
