Living With OCD in Ireland

This conversation includes discussion of mental health and suicide, listener discretion is advised.  OCD is often talked about in terms of intrusive thoughts and compulsions – but not enough about the toll it can take on someone’s mental health, and why suicide prevention has to be part of the conversation too.Valerie is joined by Lucy, OCD advocate behind Your OCD Sister, who opens up about developing OCD suddenly, the years of panic and fear that followed, and how recovery can be possible – even when you feel deep in the trenches.Plus, Lucy shares details of an upcoming OCD community weekend event in Cork this November with OCD Ireland and OCD Game Changers.
