It's a terrible fate... i get some relief from meds, but that's it. It always comes back... one way or another..

I`m sorry to hear that. But the truth is that it will be always with us. We need to learn not to live without it, but despite it. That`s what I believe in. I found the 4 steps method from the book Brain Lock helpful, you can look for it on the internet. Its main point is that we need to learn how to recognize if our thought are actually ours, or just a creation of OCD.

No I don't think they do. I think unless it's harmful in some way, because there's not much you can do about it besides coping skills, it's just seen as odd quirks you are on your own to control. People don't comprehend not having the automatic ability to just switch off that obsession or compulsion. I'd like to see more done on the personality disorder as well. OCD is a trademark joke, with it being so obvious, you'd think there would be more resources out there for coping...
