Hi! I am pretty sure I have ocd, and have had it for the past 7 years. I’ve never bothered getting a diagnosis because I feel awkward asking my parents (I am 18). Part of me feels like a fraud for not having a diagnosis; I think my friends and family would take me more seriously if I were to get diagnosed. However, part of me also doesn’t really know what getting a diagnosis would change. Idk I would appreciate anyone’s opinion ocd has actually ruined my life lol !! Also do u recommend medication 🤔
