I have been involved with OCD-UK since 2005. Firstly as a service user, onto a volunteer in different roles and then a member of the management committee

I have struggled with OCD since my teenage years, but it impacted me much more significantly following the birth of my first child 21 years ago

At times, I’ve been successfully able to eradicate my OCD using CBT techniques, for lengthy periods of time. Unfortunately, currently, OCD has quite a grasp on me, having reared its head in a completely different facet which I didn’t notice at first

OCD-UK was my lifeline in 2005 when my mental health was at its worst and has supported me in many different ways, which was why I was privileged to join the management committee.
