"I have a form of OCD called Pure O...You wouldn't know from my social medias that I have this..." - Rachel
That One Pic
" I have only recently told my parents and my boyfriend this; I have a form of OCD called Pure O. And they are the only people who know other than myself. You wouldn't know from my social medias that I have this..."
"I guess that's why I don't post about it; the fear of losing followers and friends because they don't understand..."
"Yes, I talk a lot online about my previous struggle with depression but nobody knows about my biggest issues. Nobody can see in my photos that there are a hundred intrusive thoughts running round my mind, that I'm posing despite the panic. It's a really crappy thing to live with, and telling people about these thoughts can end up with you being judges HARD. Lots of people assume you're a bad person when it's not you but the OCD. I guess that's why I don't post about it; the fear of losing followers and friends because they don't understand."
