I'm also 17, I was diagnosed when I was 10. I noticed a lot of people are naming their obsessions on here, it's not OCD unless you have a compulsion to go with it...

I am 17 yrs old and suffer from OCD. I don't know what one I don't know why, but I do. I count constantly, I can't step on cracks and I have to touch both sides of my body the same number of times in the same spot on the other side otherwise I feel unbalanced.

I feel really badly for Kevin. His mental illness is clearly affecting his whole life - right down to how he's able to communicate with people. It must be very hard to hold on to (and make) friends when you know anyone you speak to is immediately thinking, "Woah, this guy is crazy." I have OCD myself (trichotillomania form) but luckily it's very easy to hide for me. For some of these people, it obviously is not.

Jennifer (6/6/2010 11:07:32 PM)

There are drugs for OCD that can ease the anxiety, like antidepressants, and antianxiety drugs.

I am currently dating a a great guy who has OCD. I notice that he cleans a lot and before he goes to work there are certain things that he does before he leaves the house. Something happen that caused him to be upset. I notice that he cleaned the stove over and over and over before he began cooking. I believe something happened in his childhood that has caused him to become this way. I think cleaning is how he copes when things doesn't go right. We are planning to get married next year. He has told me that he has had therapy and it really did help but he is not cured. I would really like to see him healed from this disorder.

i just saw 5 minutes of this show and was already hooked!! It is a great show and there was a kid at my middle school who reminds me of kevin and now I can have a better idea of what he has to go through

Tim Woods (6/1/2010 9:16:58 PM)

It's a hard sometimes just to make it through the mourning for my self . I did not know about O.C.D until someone i work with said they think i have it i pay'd no mind to it but because i never heard of it. But i started to realize that i did things in my daily life .

Lodarot (6/1/2010 8:10:18 PM)

This could be a real good show to watch!

missLX (6/1/2010 9:34:56 AM)

I think for a lot of people OCD is hard to understand, because for us who don't have it, we are like, "Why can't you just stop?" Because we can. Also, a lot of us think these fears are so irrational! Which they are, that's part of the definition of OCD. But we have to remember that to those who suffer, its a real logical fear. Your brain can be your worst enemy, and I think anyone that suffers from OCD will tell you that. I think this show is very interesting, and hopefully it will help people be less judgemental to those who suffer from OCD.

Bouarfa Taha (6/1/2010 8:15:30 AM)

I like it !

VegasFrank (5/31/2010 6:59:59 AM)

That's really good to hear. I'm glad you've found an effective way of handling your situation. Keep it up, stay strong, and keep on moving forward.

caligrl (5/31/2010 2:03:15 AM)

I had ocd ever since I was in middle school and let me tell you that when you have this disease you are really living in hell. I had no help with ocd. I could turn to no one and no one knew I had it. Because I was so sad and absolutely miserable, one day I just stopped because I realized that I did all these rituals to make my life better or to prevent certain things from happening, but my life was hell and the things I was fearing were still coming to me. After overcoming ocd on my own I can definitely say I appreciate life more than the average person. Little things like being able to turn off the light switch without staying there for a couple of minutes or not spending a couple of hours washing and rewashing floors has made my world so much brighter. I really hope these people get better because I know what they are going through. I know it's definitely possible, regardless of how bad it looks. If I overcame it, anybody who has it can
