The myth that people don't know that they're acting irrationally with OCD
I think is a big myth
I think one of the most frustrating misconceptions about
OCD is that a lot of people think
they've got it when they don't.
I think it's really important to understand the
distinction between little obsessions
that we all might have.
I mean let's be honest on social media, we've almost all got some little obsessional behaviour going on.
I would hope people could see beyond the myths
of it's just being organised, it's
just being clean. It's just being neurotic.
And understand how to debilitating it can be.
And that always amazes me with OCD people
that you have you might
spend hours doing something but if
someone walks in you have to stop
because you don't want people to see
what you're doing. We know what we're
doing is irrational and that's why we hide it.
