Recovery from Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) is possible. 💙

For years, Eva E. Fisher struggled with how she saw herself, unaware that what she was experiencing had a name. After learning about BDD, an OCD-related disorder, she was able to seek treatment and begin her journey toward recovery.

Eva's story is a powerful reminder that while recovery isn't always linear, finding the right treatment and support can make a meaningful difference.

Representation matters in OCD research. 💙

The BELONG Study (Black Equality in OCD NeuroGenomics) is working to address gaps in OCD genetics research by including Black and African American individuals with OCD and their families.

In our latest blog, researchers discuss the importance of diverse participation, the goals of the BELONG Study, properly addressing concerns surrounding genetic research and practices, and what this research could mean for the future of OCD care.
