Women's Health and OCD-Peridoes is for women who need information about their health and how OCD impacts it. Because our disorder is controlled by brain chemicals there are definite differences that we feel as opposed to others. For instance, when this list was called Peridoes we were talking about peri-menopause, menopause and post-menopause. We know that PMS can be very difficult for an OC woman. Now we need to cover other issues. We have discussed breast cancer. We might want to draw this out more and discuss how breast cancer impacts our OCD and vice versa.
Certainly, something is going on with us that we might not notice until we look for it.
We want to hear ideas for coping, to know we are not alone, to share humor and pain and just to vent. It's difficult enough to have OCD, but add other diseases and disorders to that and the results can be devastating.
