Hi all,
I’ve been trying to explain to my family what it’s like to have OCD so I can reach out to them if I need to and also so that they might cut me a bit of slack sometimes. But it’s as if they don’t want to know, or very quickly forget what I’ve explained. Do I give up and just carry on as I am, despite the thought that they’ll never really understand me? I find it so upsetting, it makes me feel so different and alone. I find it hard to open up when it’s like starting from the beginning every time I try to talk.
Can anyone relate?
Thank you
