Hi Sk8terboy
Have you thought of joining one of the support groups in Cornwall? There is one in Liskeard run by Rethink on alternative Weds afternoons but to attend you have to be referred by your GP. There is a morning one in Truro on the last Thursday of each month run by Nicky Sweeney of the Cornwall Rural Community Council, I think you can just turn up without referral. A new one will be starting up in Launceston in October and I think this is also by referral. There are cafe chat sessions running in Bodmin and St Austell where you can meet others with various mental health conditions including OCD. Also there will be an event in Bodmin Shire Hall on Oct 8th for World Mental Health Day at which I will be taking OCD Action publicity and there will be a half hour presentation on OCD at 10.45am. Would be great to meet you if you feel up to it.

I've had OCD since I was about 10 (I'm now 17), and it definitely does mess up my school life at the moment, as I'm losing sleep and not doing my coursework because of my rituals etc.

However, I think I am getting gradually better at dealing with it, and I hope you can too
