I've suffered with OCD and Anxiety since I was 8. It's definitely been a struggle, but I've learned from it and overcame it's crippling power. My goal in life is to help those suffering with mental illness. I'm hoping of my health allows me, to become a clinical psychologist. It's been hard, but it's made me who I am today.
