OCD – 4 things that are helping right now - I’m sad to see that It’s been just over a year to the day that I’ve written a full post. I have been updating social media a bit and in all honestly I was considering letting this blog go, but I’ve just read some of the comments and I’ve realised that that’s not an option … Continue reading OCD – 4 things that are helping right now 
What a year! - Well, what a year 2021 has been, I feel like I’ve been to hell and back and I really didn’t see it coming.

Now this is definitely something I’ve been ‘suffering’ from over the last fortnight.

It’s all about balance - So I’ve chatted about my UC (ulcerative colitis) a few times on this blog, I’ve suffered with it for most of my life along with my OCD.
