  1. Hi everyone, I am currently being seen by psychologist under CMHT for my OCD which I have had 15 years and it’s severe. I asked for CBT as I would like to reduce my compulsions. I have been told that due to my long standing OCD, CBT wouldn’t be appropriate as when I stop one compulsion another would likely come up and now they want to just help me live my life as best I can with my condition using acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and trying to help me distance my thoughts a bit to make them more manageable. Has anyone else had this? I feel like they have given up and I’ll never get better Thank you for reading.
  2. OCD is horrendous and it’s becoming even more out of control 😭

      Sorry to hear that Lucy! I feel similarly unwell at the moment.

  3. Cannot wait for this dissertation to finish for my masters! It's draining me horrendously! :(

      Thank you, I have less than a week now and so much to write!

  4. I love joining the support groups, I find them so helpful. I highly recommend them as you can choose to stay quiet or speak up
  5. I was just wondering if anyone had any advise please about access to work due to being unable to drive due to OCD? I have a driving licence but due to my OCD im terrified of driving as my OCD is telling me I would have hit someone I am looking into access to work as a job I am about to apply for is an hour away and unable to get to by public transport. Has anyone else applied for access to work for a taxi due to OCD and not being able to drive and have any advise? Also, has anyone when applying for access to work been told them need to tell the DVLA about OCD? Thank you for reading
