🧠💚 OCD Does Not Discriminate
OCD can affect anyone—regardless of age, race, gender, faith, or background.
It’s not just about being tidy or anxious. It’s a complex mental health disorder involving distressing, intrusive thoughts and compulsions that can interfere with daily life.
It doesn’t always “look” the way people expect.
It can show up in silence, in rituals, in fears people are too ashamed to speak aloud.
It can affect students, parents, professionals, veterans, and children.
💡 The truth? OCD is not a choice. It’s not a personality trait. And it’s not rare.
It’s real, it’s relentless, and it’s treatable.
Let’s stop the stereotypes and start spreading compassion and awareness.
Because mental illness doesn’t discriminate—and neither should support.
