About me

-
I decided to start this blog in hope that someone who may share the same anxieties/OCD and anything similar, to me, will find it helpful.  

I'm not entirely sure where to start however a little bit about me seems like a good place. I am a 25 year old mum to two boys, my eldest is 4.5 years old and my youngest is 10 months. 
I also have a very supportive (and patient) fiance and we have been together for 6 years now.
We have very recently relocated to Somerset to be closer to my family, it has been the best decision we have ever made but shortly after moving, the worst time of my life.

 I haven't always had OCD or suffered with anxiety and if i'm honest i'm not completely sure when it all began, i have some idea which i will explain in my coming posts where i will share my journey leading up to diagnosis also sharing with you my life as a mum raising two boys.

Lets talk strength

I wanted to do a post discussing in some round about kind of way on how i have realised that i had the strength to make it through my darkest time, just prior to being diagnosed with OCD.  I found myself thinking today randomly back to one morning at the very beginning of this illness. I refer to it as an illness because of everything i suffered and am still slightly suffering with. It is an illness in that it consumes you, it can make you feel extremely unwell, you don't feel yourself, you may over eat or not eat at all, in my case i couldn't bare to eat and that made me unwell in myself. It can rob you of your happiness, your sleep, your confidence and the worst part is that it creeps up on you and steals a place in your mind. Anyway, as i said, i found myself thinking back to one morning at the very beginning of this illness. I was at home this particular morning, At this point i didn't exactly understand what i was going through and i had decided to stay at home...

My journey on how it lead to me being diagnosed with OCD

This post was written around August 2017 and although i wanted to post it back then, i just didn't feel comfortable to do so.  I couldn't even proof read it back because it made me feel so uneasy, it was still too fresh in my mind and i have mentioned a few times, if you've read my previous posts, that this was the post that made me feel so awful reading it back that i never felt strong enough to post it. I really hope that as a result of opening up and sharing my situation, it may comfort you or someone else going through something similar.  So i have recently been diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder as you may have known from reading my previous posts. This is the main reason why i started this blog, because id like to help anyone who is currently suffering with the same thing weather your unsure what is going on, or you've recently been diagnosed yourself or even if you've come through the other end of it and your managing it. I welcome any messages...
