      Hi everyone – if you haven’t already, then try to tell the people you are close to about ocd, they would want to know if you are struggling. You should reach out for support- people care.

      It can be daunting reaching out to loved ones about OCD, but its important to build a support network and to help you feel less isolated.

      Xx
