A poem about OCD and trauma— how traumatic events and situations have worsened OCD for me.

10: Poem — Trauma, Depression — The Hidden Achievement

Unheard Mind, a podcast about mental health and neurodiversity.

Having been diagnosed in my early thirties with ADHD, OCD and autism I am coming to grips with all things mental health, whilst working to make improvements in my life and make progress towards better mental health.

I share my stories of growing up with undiagnosed ADHD, OCD and autism, the emotional traumas, family conflicts and the subsequent struggles throughout adulthood. I sometimes use my own poetry to help tell these stories.

As I look forwards optimistically, I hope that sharing my experiences can give extra hope to those who may have struggled with mental health and with feeling unheard or misunderstood.
