Have you ever visited BeyondOCD.org? I suspect I have before, but forgot about it. Last week I spent some time looking around the site. The Expert Perspectives link at the top right had some really good articles, and I also was thoroughly inspired by some of the Personal Stories. This is one of the few places I've seen people post that their OCD really isn't a big problem in their life now. I love to read those stories!
Every so often people write to me asking if they can write a post about their product or system or website. Some of them are probably fabulous, but I'm really wary of appearing to endorse something I know nothing about when something as important as mental health is involved. The Beyond OCD site is run by a non-profit and doesn't seem to be selling anything. Take a look if you have a chance.
Oh! I just noticed that Janet Singer from OCDTalk has lots of posts on the site's blog. Which means I've almost certainly been told about this site before. Even more great stuff!

Yes, I've been on that site and enjoy it. I have found it very helpful. And Janet's post just makes it even better! Thanks for the reminder. And I hope you're doing well.
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, Yes, I've been blogging for Beyond OCD for quite a while and I think they are a wonderful organization. They used to be called "OCD Chicago"...maybe you remember that? And you're right, they aren't selling anything. They just want to help those with OCD!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up, Ann. I have been to the site but it's been a while. Definitely need to visit it again.
