OCD = the doubter’s disease. Don’t let it prevent you from achieving what you want to do in life. Live with the uncertainty. Accept you will make mistakes. Seek treatment. You got this.

Aw, it’s so awesome to know there’s other fellow pre-meds! I was so worried that I couldn’t be a doctor because my OCD would stop me. But I can’t go a day without dreaming about it, so I’m never going to let some silly illness get in my way! We can do this together, and who knows, maybe one day we’ll meet in the corridors of a hospital! All the best :) thanks again for the inspiration! d a i s y

Yes I would like to go into the medical field as well, but I fear I won’t be able to do it. I have an internship at a hospital right now for school as a Patient registrar. It’s very fun and fulfilling to know I was given the opportunity, but I continue to doubt myself. I like to have things planned out perfectly so there’s never any mishaps, but unfortunately I can’t control what my future holds and it scares me everyday.

I’m having a terrible night. I’ve been in a panicked state for a couple of hours. I’ve been prescribed a medication for when I’m extremely anxious, but I’m reluctant to use it because I’m worried I’m going to become addicted or something ? (even though my doctor assured me I can’t become addicted!) Can anyone offer some advice/experiences? Thank you! d a i s y

Hi everyone! It’s been a while! For anyone that doesn’t know me, I’m Daisy :) I’ve been a part of this forum since it first opened and boy has it come far! I’m 18 and live in Australia ?? I’m currently 8 weeks into an inpatient hospital stay due to the severity of my OCD. So believe me when I say, I’m very, very familiar with OCD and how truly horrendous it can be to live with. I just wanted to let others know that I’m here to listen if they need someone to vent to. Sometimes it’s hard to open up as an obsessive-compulsive because our thoughts are so terrifyingly intrusive. Our friends and family, although supportive, can be unfamiliar with the mechanisms of these horrific thoughts and how to approach them. Feel free to ask me anything! I’ve taken dozens of medications, seen many specialist and engaged in multiple different therapies. If anyone’s interested in life as an inpatient, I’m more than happy to answer some questions ? Hope you’re all wonderful ? d a i s y

I’m having a rough time rn. My parents both told me that they don’t think I could or should be a dr (I’m going to be a sr in college this year). They said that I have too many and too intense of problems to be one - I’ve got OCD, depression, and dermotillomania (skin picking). Normally, I brush things ppl say off pretty easily, but not w my parents. I love them and really care about their opinion. But it’s making me even more depressed, as one of the last things I was holding onto was the thought that I would be able to use my experiences to be an even better dr than I would have been before getting these things. I’ve been suicidal for a long time but I always told myself that I was going to get through this and use it to help ppl. But it’s tearing away my last shreds knowing that not even the ppl I care about the most think I can achieve my dreams. ?
