Hello! I just discovered this community through a psychology class in school. I have suffered from depression and self-harm since middle school, coupled with severe anxiety. Last year, I was diagnosed with OCD, and struggle a lot with concentration due to my obsessive thoughts. I am here to help learn more about my issues and to hopefully help others as much as I can. I look forward to hearing from everybody and reading all the great advice! My main battle right now is my depression. I am having pretty unstable mood swings. My OCD feeds directly into my depression, and my mind is constantly going. It is very exhausting.

Welcome to the Forums, I think you will find them very beneficial! Many people here that are very similar and like minded, so it helps to talk to people closely related to what we feel and think.

Don't ever feel alone. Which normally is the first feeling we have when we find ourselves struggling to come to terms with our anxiety and related disorders. You will find the strength you need to get through your worst days and realize that your stronger than most people to be able to go through what your facing now. Hope you are feeling better🙂
