Bailey MacDonald: Being a young person with OCD

This week Penny and Angie talk to Bailey MacDonald, an 18 year old who has OCD. Bailey has been suffering with OCD for many years, but it was a few years ago that a particular OCD theme entered Bailey’s life and completely upended it. Whilst Bailey isn’t comfortable to go into the content of the obsessions, she bravely talks to Penny and Angie about: ⁃Her first encounter with the mental health system and why it put her ff seeking help for years after ⁃How exhausting it is to be at school whilst dealing with debilitating OCD ⁃When she first told her mum about the obsessions ⁃How dark things became because she just wanted to go back to the time ‘before’ ⁃Starting a podcast about OCD for a school project, which quickly became a passion project ⁃How much hope she now has that things can get better 🔗 Listen to Bailey's podcast
