Untreated OCD can take a toll on one’s physical and mental health, greatly diminishing a person’s quality of life.
If left untreated, obsessive thoughts may hinder one’s ability to focus at work, school or on everyday tasks. Meanwhile, compulsive behaviours may take up hours of one’s day.
Untreated OCD leaves many sufferers feeling helpless, socially isolated and even suicidal. You do not need to suffer alone. Seek help for OCD as a first step to improving your quality of life.
