Attention OCDers!

I am currently involved as a subject in the project mentioned below. They are looking for participants with OCD, and I'm happy to post their casting flyer on my blog. I can tell you they are fantastically nice, and extremely respectful! Please contact them if you'd like to participate.

"Pink Sneakers Productions is currently casting for TLC's new documentary series tentatively titled, "Life Chronicles". Each episode documents the day-to-day lives of people affected by different life experiences. One of our episodes will focus on obsessive-compulsive disorder. We are currently looking for people who have been directly or indirectly (family member of, etc) affected by OCD.
These are unique and sensitive topics to be covered through a true, documentary style format to inform and educate our viewers while preserving respect for all parties involved.
If you, or someone you know may be interested in participating in this project with us and sharing his or her story please contact us at casting@pinksneakers.net and feel free to check out our website at www.pinksneakers.net.
We thank you in advance for sharing your story."

I must say that this blog has been wonderfully helpful. I'm doing a rather large research report for my English class on OCD since I've always sort of struggled with similar symptoms, though I'm pretty sure I don't ACTUALLY have it, and it's been really interesting to read all of the things a bunch of boring medical journals have been saying from a person actually experiencing it and with a sense of humor, refreshing.

So anyway, thank you and I know this has NOTHING to do with your post but since it was the most recent I thought it made the most sense to comment on.

You have a good blog here. Helping to identify various symptoms is key in dealing with this monster. Great job.

Do you know more about this program and when it will air? I'd be interested in watching it as I had a friend growing up who had OCD. I think of her often and know how difficult life was for her at times. Thanks for blogging.

Hello and thank you for writing this blog. OCD runs in my family and it has become something we don’t dare talk about. I too hide my OCD very well from friends and co-workers. The past year my OCD has been getting worse and I have been trying to understand it in hopes of controlling it. I have done various things like read books, go on OCD sites and even write my own blog. Most of sites and books list the symptoms but not the real everyday challenges OCDers go through. After reading your blog I could not believe all the similarities. It was helpful to me knowing I am not alone.

Thanks

Are you going to let us know when it airs? I received the same invitation but didn't respond to it. How exciting for you. I hope it goes well.
