Hi,
I’ve been struggling with debilitating OCD for the past 7 years. Some of you know that I’ve struggled with other mental health challenges as well, like binge eating, bipolar, and misophonia. I’ve done multiple residential and outpatient treatments in the last 4 years, which have definitely helped.
The binge eating, mood swings, irritability, and sleeplessness are much less and more manageable.
What I’ve been struggling with most lately is the OCD. It’s incredibly debilitating and paralyzing and consumes every second of every day. I spend hours fixing things in my apartment, on the sidewalks, and even in the middle of the street, that I’m surprised I haven’t been run over yet.
I spend hours doing the most basic things that would take most people only minutes.
I found a treatment by Dr. Daniel Amen, where he focuses on a person’s brain health. I am also looking at TMS Treatment, which I’ve found has helped tremendously for OCD. Of course, all of this costs money and is not covered by insurance.
I’ve spent years working on my mental and physical health. And even though I’ve made progress in some places, I still have some more specific healing I need to do.
With God’s help, I hope to raise the money to finish what I started so many years ago.
