What users say
Verbatim quotes, shortened only — each links to the original discussion.
“After I was diagnosed with ocd I was put on Prozac for years but the side effects are numerous and I got to the point where I preferred just dealing with the ocd than feeling like a zombie.”
“I could remember everything. I could organise my work without writing lists. I could remember that I had told something to someone.”
