Hi there... sorry I've been missing your posts lately.
So how do you feel about the screening? What's the next step for you? Will you be seeing a specialist to discuss treatment? Have you talked with your parents about it?
You are not alone with the poor eating habits. Its like an epademic. So much processed food disrupting your growth and playing havoc with your mental and physical wellness.
Do yourself a great favour.... eat well. It is the most important foundation to any treatment plan you and your doctors can design to help you cope and recover from the effects of OCD. Get rid of the processed foods. Lots of foods you should avoid and lots you should get extra to help combat the effects of the disorder. See if you can be refered to a nutritionist for some diet advice.
Much about any disorder can be traced to poor eating habits and mal-nourishment. Maybe ask for a full physcial work-up to see where your vitamin and other nutrition levels are at. Take nutritional supplements if you can't eat enough of the foods you need to improve your health.
Our body fuels our brain so when a disorder hits it becomes that much more important to take care of your body. Eat well and exercise regularly are the first steps towards recovery no matter the name of the disorder.
Here for you......... feel free to talk through your feelings. Take good care.........
