We are a force to be reckoned with, even if it doesn’t feel that way now.

Adjusting Our Sails

" You can't control the wind, you can only adjust your sails" One of the hardest concepts to come to terms with for me was the fact that - although I did not have control of my circumstances - I had control of my actions and the decisions I made in life; no matter what [...]

From Pain to Gain

  It's official! I have a Masters of Arts in Psychology! These past two years have been an absolute dream come true. A dream I never thought I would get to experience. It has taken a lot of hard work, tears, and setbacks to reach this milestone, but I've learned that that is precisely how [...]

As a peer advocate, I learn just as much from the patients as they learn from me. The lessons of "Chapters" really spiked my interest.

However, it took patience, mistakes, and professional guidance for me to understand my faults and turn them into life lessons. With my Anxiety, Depression, and OCD, there [...]

Foggy Futures Will Come into Focus

*TRIGGER WARNING: The topic of suicide is mentioned in this post.*  Imagining your future is such a strange phenomenon. Throughout your life, you will imagine many versions of yourself. Many jobs, many houses, and many names for your future children. Life is full of planning for what is yet to come. However, there are many [...]

Get Comfortable with Feeling Uncomfortable

Get Comfortable with Feeling Uncomfortable

A couple months back I saw this quote online from nOCD. It really hit home and was the perfect reminder that there is no reason to fear my anxiety. In the past, the moment I felt the tingle of anxiety was the moment I would quickly try to shove it away. If the anxiety did not go [...]

Hey there, I'm Chelsea! I've suffered from severe OCD and Tourette Syndrome (along with the other illnesses included with the Deluxe OCD package such as Depression and Anxiety) It has changed my life completely. It is something that I constantly have to fight and overcome but has inspired my passion to help others like myself. I will continue to fight for the life I have always dreamed of. And of course, I'd love it if you guys came along on this journey with me!
