Hi everybody! This is the very first time that I talk about this (except once in the social group) and it's still a bit 'strange' for me...I haven't been diagnosed, but I learnt about OCD almost a year ago studying psychology and I really think to have it. The good news is that I'm doing better now than last year, I'm able to control my compulsion most of the time and I still have some ossessions, but I become less anxious about them. But, of course, I'd like to stop having OCD at all...do you know if it's possible? The problem is that I don't know if I could be 'brave' enought to speak with a therapist, and expecially not with my parents...I would be too embarassed! Expecially if I had to explain well my symptoms. I can say that I feel the need to touch things and to say things in my mind (and to admit it is a lot for me). Does somebody else had/have problems in talking to his family? How did you do? Thanks to everybody who wants to answer, or also only to read my long post
