Shaun explains that earlier it was OCD Awareness Week, but OCD awareness needs to be every day.

Reading this inspiring story of how Shaun is on a mission to raise awareness of the reality of OCD. He explains that when people talk about OCD, they often talk about it as if it’s a quirk or something enjoyable but how anyone who lives with OCD know this couldn’t be further from the truth.

Read how OCD took him to some incredibly dark places and how he doesn’t want anybody else to feel as isolated and scared as he did. This is why he is so passionate about raising awareness – so people know that OCD is serious, so they understand what symptoms to look out for, and so they know that with the right support, it can get better.
