Exposure Therapy: You want me to do what?

A year ago, I realized that my OCD was starting to have a negative effect on my life. And by that, I mean I was miserable and I was making everyone around me miserable too.

How many times have you heard someone use this phrase? I can’t even count. The number is most likely in the thousands. However, I don’t think 99% of the people who use it, actual know what it means! I grew up in a very loving and supportive family and had what most people would describe…… Continue reading “I am so OCD!”
