For better and for worse, living with OCD can impact creativity and artistic expression. For some, grappling with OCD and entering recovery may open new pathways for creativity. For others, OCD may lead to creative paralysis and the compulsive hijacking on one’s art form. The intersections of creativity and OCD symptoms are as varied and diverse as art itself!

If this resonates with you, consider signing up for the International OCD Foundation’s (IOCDF) Online Conference where I’ll be co-facilitating a discussion group on creativity and OCD. This discussion is just one part of the weekend! By signing up for the conference, you’ll have a chance to participate in educational workshops and other discussions about OCD and related disorders.

Can’t attend the conference? Consider checking out the variety of online events offered by the IOCDF as part of OCD Awareness Week.
