Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is a mental health problem that can affect people in different ways.

The sufferer relies on ritual actions and behaviours to get rid of undesirable thoughts and obsessions, however these rituals and repeat behaviours, for instance, counting every light bulb in the building only ward off these thoughts for a short time.

Approximately one in fifty suffer with OCD within their lifetime and there are approximately 1,250,000 people in the United Kingdom affected by it.
