dropout   10 #2 Posted April 2, 2020 Hello Doyle. In answer to your question of March 2, 2020, it would seem "Not", huh?  I have lived with OCD all of my life, but don't think it is or has been too extreme. Came to realise that I actually HAD OCD when I was around 45 - 50 years old or so....!!  I mean nobody TELLS you that you have it right? So you just think that what you are doing is normal?  That is/was the case for me, anyhow. Ni mind'eh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

MrBump   10 #5 Posted August 19, 2020 Who could possibly say it's too far gone? Our brains are amazingly capable of adapting. I know someone who went for residential treatment at Bethlem Hospital in London. It did not offer a total cure but it stopped their OCD being so life-limiting. Might be worth investigating. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
