MENTAL HEALTH REMINDERS

so in 2018 i was diagnosed with OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) and it was probably the scariest but one of the most awakening moments of my life.

i felt completely alone and like i was going crazy, and it wasn’t until i got the help from medical professionals who diagnosed me that i started to understand what was going on.

my therapist throughout that time was a godsend and without her, i wouldn’t have been able to start my healing journey.

above are my three top reminders for anyone struggling with OCD or any mental illness. when i first got diagnosed, these things completely helped calming me and still do to this day.

keep in mind, i am NOT a medical professional, just a fellow OCD survivor.

if you are struggling don’t be afraid to ask for help by calling the mental health hotline, emergency services, therapists, and medical professionals. they are there to help you.
