You can’t be 'a bit OCD’

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety-related condition that can mean a person experiences intrusive obsessional thoughts.

Model and writer Lily Bailey wants to change how people talk about OCD by challenging common misconceptions.

She said: “Every time someone jokes about OCD and makes light of it, it stops someone like me… understanding what we have and feeling ok about asking for help”.
