Real life stories
Sharing stories and experiences
Although everyone's story is different, there are many common threads to people's experiences.
A carer's story from Dumfries and Galloway
I care for my partner, who 9 years ago was finally diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder after living and struggling with it for all his adult life.
A mother's story
Our nightmare began in 1980. My son was at high school when his behaviour began to change: through his drawings he showed a certain amount of hatred for his dad.
A father's perspective
(Written in 1997)
Pity the poor father whose son becomes mentally ill.
