Hello,
My name is Jaslee Carayol and I’m a journalism student at Columbia University. I am working on a master’s project on the topic of ERP in OCD patients and I came across your blog through my research. It has been interesting and informative to read about your journey.
I was wondering if you’d be willing to speak to me about your challenges with OCD?
