OCD Action Forum Guidelines & Requirements
We’re so glad you’re part of the OCD Action forum user community. We’ve put together some essential information for everyone – please take a few minutes to read it.
What are forum guidelines?
Guidelines are standards that all users must follow to help keep this a safe and welcoming for everyone. Before using the forums, you must read and agree to follow our: Forum Guidelines
Forum Requirements & Useful tips
Is there an age requirement for the forums?
Yes. You must be 18 or over to use these forums or register for an account.
What do forum moderators do?
Our team of moderators are here to help you! They also work to ensure your safety, privacy and security are always protected while using the forums. They moderate with a “light touch” and will never censor or judge anyone.

19 May 2024 at 23:03 #31280Forum ModeratorsHaven’t visited the forums in a while? We’d like you to know that we updated the Forum Guidelines last year, with the goal of making them easier to read and follow. We didn’t change the content of the guidelines, just the format. And we occasionally update the guidelines – any major changes will always be communicated with users.
Continued Improvements!
We’ve been making occasional improvements to the Guidelines over the past few months; again, not changing the content, just making them easier clearer for forum users – and we hope you find them even more helpful!
You’ll find everything you need to know about using the forum in the updated guidelines. You can find them here: Forum Guidelines
And, please email us if you have questions or need help using the forums: forum@ocdaction.org.uk
