In response to message posted by maber:

Dear maber
I have been suffering from ocd since I was 23 yrs.old. The time that the chemical inbalance started nobody new in my family or even some doctors what was wrong with me. It was overwelheming. My best advice to you would be to first put your faith in God, as him to help you to fight this horrible problem. As for your parents, you might have to do some research to show them that you have the symptoms of ocd. If possible get some pamphlets from your doctors office. I have had some very hard times with this condition. The best advice I can give you for yourself, is to believe in yourself no matter how hard it may seem and never give up hope. I have been fighting this imbalance for 13 years and I refuse to give up. Even though alot of people dont understand!! I have come to realize that I am the only one that knows how I feel and whatever it takes I will never give up on the fact that some day I will reach my goal as to how I want to feel. I also had obessive thinking, some simular to your thoughts. I have regained alot of my life back with taking medication for the chemical imbalance. Please try to understand, no matter how hard it may seem, that your parents just do not understand your complications, and sooner or later they will come around. Please give up on the idea of leaving home. Sometimes this is part of the struggle, to help others understand.I do understand how hard and how stressful this point of your life is, but I want you to know that things can and will get better.Believe me when I say, I never thought I would be able to tell anyone this. Ocd is a very frustrating and time consuming illness. My heart goes out to you!!!! We have to all stick together to help others understand and I know that each and everyone of us will in our time find the strength, and peace of mind that we all deserve!
God Bless You!!Take Care!! Hang in there!!!
sincerly,
Hope2Help
