OCD Being Misunderstood

For the first time in a long time I’m filled with vengeance and ambition to take down the people who make our lives hard. We have to speak out and make ourselves known so our struggles aren’t waiting their turn to be brought into the limelight. I’m tired of no one knowing what the hell OCD is. From now on we should be entitled to exist without being mistaken for so many things we’re not. Every quirk, every facial expression, every routine, every thought that we’ve ever had should be accounted for. And anyone who stigmatizes it can be left behind and forgotten.

Honestly I have a feeling it will be brought to the limelight but it’s going to take a lot for it to happen. The media has to feel obligated to bring it to light hopefully it happens because this disorder is just as bad as anxiety and depression if not worse

People are taking their own lives because of it which makes me want to become an advocate but I have to get better first so I can be a voice for the voiceless

i feel this! especially with taboo themes like pocd, harm ocd and iocd. it is enough for those who have to go through it, but to the face harmful misinformation? unacceptable.

I understand where you’re coming from but I think she just wants OCD to be acknowledged on a greater scale so people can become more aware of the things they say or don’t say. Same thing that happened with Racism being brought to every one’s attention back in 2020. Yeah there’s still racist people but now more white people are educating themselves instead of saying thing like “I’m don’t see color”.
