I know that some mental illnesses can actually be cured and completely gotten rid of using treatment/medication/therapy/etc, but some of them cannot and must be treated and managed for the rest of your life. Can you ever completely cure yourself of OCD? Or must it be treated for life?
I have had a recurring type of OCD for the past 4 years & it always comes back in different forms. But for some reason my psychiatrist has only put me on depression/bipolar meds but none for my anxiety and OCD.

You woke up this morning with a heartbeat, and that should be reason enough to wake up again tomorrow.
