Izzy

Available today

As a daughter of a narcissistic mother and someone who has endured religious trauma, I want you to know this first: you are not alone. I was born and raised in Pakistan and have navigated my own journey through anxiety, CPTSD, depression, and dyslexia. For a long time, I carried guilt, confusion, and the quiet feeling of never being fully seen. Therapy was a meaningful and supportive part of my healing, and I’m grateful for the clarity it provided. Over time, I also began attending peer support groups, where I experienced something deeply transformative, being witnessed by others who showed up vulnerably and met me as an equal. That sense of shared humanity shifted my healing in profound ways. I originally trained and worked as a medical doctor, but I came to understand that my heart was in creating spaces centered on connection, presence, and lived experience.

Topic context

Understanding ocd anonymous

Living with OCD often means managing persistent, intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors that can be exhausting and isolating. The condition is frequently misunderstood, which adds to the difficulty of seeking support. Peer support sessions allow individuals with OCD to connect with others who truly understand the condition. Through open discussion, participants can find comfort, swap coping strategies, and realize they are not alone in navigating their challenges.

Why it helps

How a Peer Specialist helps with ocd anonymous

A Peer Specialist helps with OCD because intrusive thoughts and compulsions can feel isolating and shameful. A 1-on-1 session offers recognition, shared experience, and language for what is happening, all without the clinical pressure of formal treatment.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same as an OCD Anonymous 12-step program?

No. ShareWell Peer Specialists offer 1-on-1 peer-led sessions, not 12-step programs. There is no formal step structure. The focus is open conversation, shared experience, and emotional support with someone who understands OCD.

Do I need a formal OCD diagnosis to book a session?

No. Many people book because the pattern of intrusive thoughts and compulsions resonates with their experience. The focus is on shared understanding, not clinical labels.

How is this different from therapy or ERP?

Therapy and ERP (exposure and response prevention) are clinical treatments led by professionals. A Peer Specialist offers 1-on-1 lived-experience connection, validation, and shared coping ideas, and many people find it helpful alongside treatment.
