October Is OCD Awareness Month: Why It Matters

OCD Awareness Month is here, and we’re excited to join forces with the International OCD Foundation to shine a light on what it really means to live with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. In this video, we dive into the myths, the struggles, and the toll OCD takes on people’s lives — and why it’s so important to break the stigma. This month, let’s take the first step together and support those affected by OCD in finding the help they need.
