Go to your regular MD. If you have an OCD diagnosis, you're eligible for therapy - specifically cognitive benaviour therapy (CBT) which is what I'm taking right now. It will teach you how to deal with the anxiety and to handle situations where the OCD can act up. I don't have to pay for it - it's payed by OHIP. If you get a referral from a regular MD, you see the psychologist for free. St Joe's has a unit in London, and a sattelite unit in Tillsonburg. The psychologist I'm seeing is Dr. Bates - he works out of London and I would recommend him. You might have to wait, but at least you don't have to pay for it.
Hugs, Alicia. PS - you can e-mail me anytime - I'd be happy to chat and share stories. If I can help at all, let me know. Don't hesitate. XO.
